The recent dramatic progress in the printed electronics and flexible electronics, due to the universality of the substrates including the foldable and stretchable substrates, has opened a new prospect in the field of future electronics. In this paper, silver nanospheres in large-scale are synthesized, the nanosilver ink with 63.88% silver content are prepared and a new type of highly conductive and far identify distance RFID tags are manufactured. Especially there are no resin and other additives containing in our conductive ink which satisfy the rheological characteristics and process of screen printing. The tags exhibit the best radiation performance own to there is no high temperature sintering in need. The surface resistance of the tags could be 80 mΩ/, and the identify distance reach to 6.0m. Keywords:silver nanoparticles, conductive ink, RFID tags

The paper provides an overview of high-resolution electrohydrodynamic (EHD) printing processes for general applications in high-precision micro/nanoscale fabrication and manufacturing. Compared with other printing approaches, EHD printing offers many unique advantages and opportunities in the printing resolution, tunable printing modes, and wide material applicability, which has been successfully applied in numerous applications that include additive manufacturing, printed electronics, biomedical sensors and devices, and optical and photonic devices. In this review, the EHDs-based printing mechanism and the resulting printing modes are described, from which various EHD printing processes were developed. The material applicability and ink printability are discussed to establish the critical factors of the printable inks in EHD printing. A number of EHD printing processes and printing systems that are suitable for micro/nanomanufacturing applications are described in this paper. The recent progresses, opportunities, and challenges of EHD printing are reviewed for a range of potential application areas.

Within the last decade, large efforts were made to implement digital printing as a production method for printed electronics. Especially in production of thick-film electronics, innovation is pushed forward to overcome the lacks of established screen-printing regarding flexibility and tooling. Besides the numerous approaches in using ink-jet printing for printed electronics, researchers at Helmut Schmidt University already showed huge progress in applying electrophotography (“laser printing”) as a method to print conductive silver lines in order to form a conductive layout for thick-film circuits. Electrophotography is a solvent-free method, able to directly print silver toner onto ceramic substrates, forming a conductive line after firing. Benefits are high speeds and flexibility and a huge potential regarding precision. Now, after the feasibility of the method was proven and even functional conductive layouts like RFID coils were printed, the next steps have to be taken towards developing electrophotography to an applicable method in a thick-film production process. Thus, this paper describes the efforts in improving the method's performance. Different kinds of silver particles are tested towards their possibility of forming a silver toner. The resulting silver lines are examined regarding conductivity and printing precision. Also, surface treatment of substrates is considered as a method to reduce the number of required print cycles. Corresponding tests are performed. Furthermore, different firing profiles are tested towards their influence onto the resulting silver lines. Combining the results of these examinations, the performance of conductive silver lines could be improved significantly.
