ABSTRACT-Printed electronics hopes to bring an even
higher level of electronics everywhere by enabling
devices that are as inexpensive as printed paper, as
large as a billboard, and as flexible as a piece of plastic.
None of these characteristics are feasible at present with
conventional microelectronics, whether it be single
crystal silicon integrated circuits, or amorphous silicon
thin film transistor (TFT) displays. Though cost is
universally a driver for any technology, enabling
electronics to be made at the cost of printed paper
would allow for the integration of electronics on nearly
every product in existence. These electronics could
provide some intelligence to a product making our lives
better.

PRINTING METHODS
There are four main printing techniques that
use a pattern master for image transfer: flexography,
lithography, gravure, and screen printing. Of these
techniques flexography, lithography, and gravure
have been considered for use in printed electronics.
Silkscreen, because it is exclusively a thick film
process was not considered here, though it enjoys
wide adoption in the manufacture of printed circuit
boards.
Flexography is essentially a rubber stamp on
a roll; of the techniques considered it operates most
similarly to Gutenbergs original printing press where
the pattern to be printed is raised out of the surface of
the printing form. This raised surface then gets inked,
and the ink is then transferred to the substrate.
Flexography has potential as a laboratory printing
technique because the rubber printing forms are
