TL;DR: In this paper, the laser-based curing of printed nanoparticle ink to create microlines (resistors) of electrical resistivity approaching that of bulk gold was investigated, and a process that circumvents a serious drawback on the functionality of cured gold microlines is produced.

TL;DR: In this article, the concept and the design of a micro-solid oxide fuel cell system is described and discussed, which consists of the fuel cell PEN element, a gas processing unit, and a thermal system PEN elements of freestanding multi-layer membranes are fabricated on Foturan ® and on Si substrates using thin film deposition and microfabrication techniques.

TL;DR: In this paper, the process of printing and laser curing of nanoparticle solutions is presented, where a liquid solvent is employed as the carrier of gold nanoparticles possessing a low melting temperature compared to that of bulk gold using a specifically designed printing system.

TL;DR: By employing continuous Gaussian laser irradiation in tandem with a specifically designed drop-on-demand jetting system, nanoparticle inks were printed and sintered on glass substrate.

TL;DR: In this article, a pulsed laser-based curing of a printed nanoink (nanoparticle ink) combined with moderate and controlled substrate heating was investigated to create microconductors at low enough temperatures appropriate for polymeric substrates.
