Electrical, plating and catalytic uses of metal nanomaterial compositions
Kurt A. Schroder,Steve Mccool,Dennis W. Hamill,Dennis Wilson,Wayne Furlan,Kevin C. Walter,Darrin L. Willauer,Karl Matthew Martin +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, a nanomaterial composition can be used at ambient temperature or under other means to cause such reaction, activation, combination, or sintering to occur, which can be applied to pulsed emissions to react, activate, combine and sinter the nano-material composition.

Radial pulsed arc discharge gun for synthesizing nanopowders
Kurt A. Schroder,Doug K. Jackson +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a system and method for synthesizing nanopowder which provides for precursor material ablation from two opposing electrodes (31, 32) that are substantially axially aligned and spaced apart within a gaseous atmosphere, where a plasma (37, 38) is created by a high power pulsed (34) electrical discharge between the electrodes, such pulse being of short duration to inertially confine the plasma.
Broadcast Photonic Curing of Metallic Nanoparticle Films
TL;DR: In this paper, a novel and industrially scalable technique is presented for curing metal nanoparticle based films in which an uncured film is made conductive by exposure to a brief, intense pulse of light from a xenon flash lamp.
Mechanisms of Photonic Curing™: Processing High Temperature Films on Low Temperature Substrates
TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss the mechanisms of the photonic curing process and model it using a thermal diffusion simulation, which has been integrated into a 4th generation high speed processing tool yielding predictive results.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ultra-fast photonic curing of electrically conductive adhesives fabricated from vinyl ester resin and silver micro-flakes for printed electronics
Hui-Wang Cui,Jinting Jiu,Shijo Nagao,Tohru Sugahara,Katsuaki Suganuma,Hiroshi Uchida,Kurt A. Schroder +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used an intense pulse of light to cure the adhesives under an ambient atmosphere at room temperature and achieved a typical curing time of 140 ms without any photosensitizers or photoinitiators.
