Laser-induced backward transfer (LIBT) has been demonstrated as a viable technique for precise, localised deposition of microscale regions graphene. Single femtosecond laser pulses, shaped spatially using digital micromirror device (DMD), were incident on pre-prepared sample graphene-coated nickel (the donor substrate) through transparent glass receiver substrate. Under optimal exposure conditions, and in low-pressure gas environment, circular graphene with approximately 30 µm diameter...
Achieving high quality transfer of graphene on selected substrates is a priority in device fabrication, especially where drop-on-demand applications are involved. In this work, we report an in-situ, fast, simple, and one step process that resulted the reduction, transfer, fabrication reduced oxide-based humidity sensors, using picosecond laser pulses. By tuning illumination parameters, managed to implement sequential printing reduction oxide flakes. The overall lasted only few seconds...
Abstract State-of-the-art methods for printing highly resolved pixels of two-dimensional (2D) materials on technologically important substrates typically involve multiple and time-consuming processing steps which increase device fabrication complexity the risk impurity contamination.
