Controllable Liquid-Liquid Printing with Defect-free, Corrosion-Resistance, Unrestricted Wetting Condition. iScience 2019; 19:93-100. [PMID: 31357171 PMCID: PMC6664161 DOI: 10.1016/j.isci.2019.07.017] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/05/2019] [Revised: 07/09/2019] [Accepted: 07/12/2019] [Indexed: 10/26/2022] Open
Abstract
Conventional printing is worth revisiting because of its established procedures in meeting the surging demand of manufacturing printed electronics, 3D products, etc. However, one goal in penetrating printing into these is to control pattern transfer with no limitation of wettability. Here we introduce a miscible liquid-liquid transfer printing mechanism that can synchronize material preparation and material patterning with desirable properties including limitless selection of raw materials, corrosion resistance, no wetting constraint, and ability to prepare large-area defect-free materials for multi-function applications. Theoretical modeling and experiments demonstrate that donor liquid could be used to make patterns within the bulk of a receiver material, allowing the obtained intrinsically patterned functional materials to be resistant to harsh conditions. Different from current liquid printing technologies, this printing approach enables stable and defect-free material preparation and is expected to prove useful in flexible display, soft electronics, 4D printing, and beyond.

Abstract
With facile manufacturability and modifiability, impressive nanoparticles (NPs) assembly applications were performed for functional patterned devices, which have attracted booming research attention due to their increasing applications in high-performance optical/electrical devices for sensing, electronics, displays, and catalysis. By virtue of easy and direct fabrication to desired patterns, high throughput, and low cost, NPs assembly printing is one of the most promising candidates for the manufacturing of functional micro-chips. In this review, an overview of the fabrications and applications of NPs patterned assembly by printing methods, including inkjet printing, lithography, imprinting, and extended printing techniques is presented. The assembly processes and mechanisms on various substrates with distinct wettabilities are deeply discussed and summarized. Via manipulating the droplet three phase contact line (TCL) pinning or slipping, the NPs contracted in ink are controllably assembled following the TCL, and generate novel functional chips and correlative integrate devices. Finally, the perspective of future developments and challenges is presented and widely exhibited.

Abstract
Engineered wettability is a traditional, yet key issue in surface science and attracts tremendous interest in solving large-scale practical problems. Recently, different super-wettability systems have been discovered in both nature and experiments. In this Review we present three types of super-wettability, including the three-dimensional, two-dimensional, and one-dimensional material surfaces. By combining different super-wettabilities, novel interfacial functional systems could be generated and integrated into devices for use in tackling current and the future problems including resources, energy, environment, and health.
