Discussing the important trends in printed photonics, this book covers such hot topics as printed electronics and photonic applications, including photovoltaics and inkjet printing.
Following an introduction, the book is divided into three parts. The first discusses the field of optoelectronics, such as solar power generation, light emitting devices as well as micro– and nano–optics, while the second part goes on to describe the field of biophotonics, where biometrics, diagnostics and colorimetric devices are introduced. The final part concerns the printing of light–based sensors, for use in wearables and smart phones for example, concluding with a look at future technological advances and applications.
Invaluable reading for material developers and electrical engineers, whether in academic research or industrial development.
