One of the most important strategies for mitigation and managing pandemics is widespread, rapid and inexpensive testing and isolation of infected patients. In this study, we demonstrate large area, label-free, and rapid testing sensor platforms fabricated on both rigid and flexible substrates for fast and accurate detection of SARS-CoV-2. SERS enhancing metal insulator metal (MIM) nanostructures are modeled using finite element simulations and then fabricated using nanoimprint lithography (NIL) and transfer printing. The SERS signal of various viral samples, including spiked saliva, was analyzed using machine learning classifiers. We observe that our approach can obtain the test results typically within 25 minutes with a detection accuracy of at least 83% for the viral samples. We envision that this approach which features large area nanopatterning, fabrication in both rigid and flexible formats for wearables, SERS spectroscopy and machine learning can enable new types of rapid, label-free biosensors for screening pathogens and managing current and future pandemics.

Recently low cost production is vital to produce printed electronics by roll to roll manufacturing printing process like a flexographic. Flexographic has a high speed technique which commonly used for printing onto large area flexible substrates. However, the minimum feature sizes achieved with roll to roll printing processes, such as flexographic is in the range of fifty microns. The main contribution of this limitation is photopolymer flexographic plate unable to be produced finer micron range due to film that made by Laser Ablation Mask (LAMs) technology not sufficiently robust and consequently at micron ranges line will not be formed on the printing plate. Hence, polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) is used instead of photopolymer. Printing trial had been conducted and multiple solid lines successfully printed for below fifty microns line width with no interference between two adjacent lines of the printed images.

ABSTRACTLarge area lighting OLEDs manufactured in a Roll-to-Roll (R2R) fashion enable the well-longed production capability with considerably high throughput based on flexible substrates, hence largely reduced OLED manufacturing cost. This paper will outline the present status of R2R OLED fabrication on ultra-thin glass with the focus on transparent OLED devices and how to perform segmentation by printing of silver- and dielectric pastes. Ultra-thin glass (UTG) is laminated on a PET film to avoid fabrication interruptions when glass cracks occur during the Roll-to-Roll process. The R2R fabricated flexible OLEDs also show key-values comparable to conventional OLEDs fabricated on small rigid glass in lab-scale.
