We have a current post-doctoral position open for a funded research project involving printable sensors. Specifically, the project’s goal is to optimize a capacitive/triboelectric pressure sensor for high temporal resolution measurements. The project has both computational and experimental components, and as such, the researcher should have experience in both. In addition to their research background, …
Congratulations to LPES Postdoc Neda KaramiMohammadi on publishing her most recent work on sensor design in IEEE Sensors Letters. Neda will present the paper at the IEEE Flexible, Printable Sensors and Systems (FLEPs) conference in Boston this July. The paper can be found here. The research work was supported by the U.S. Office of Naval …
Congrats to Vanessa on being awarded the NSF Graduate Research Fellowship!
Our lab has recently published a paper in the journal Nano Letters that presents diodes fabricated using Silicon Carbide nanowire inks. Specifically, we focus on the resilience of various device parameters in harsh environments. There is a general opinion that printed electronics cannot be compatible with either high-temperature or high-radiation applications. While this is true for …
Aaresha Biswas and Muhammadeziz Tuxuniyazi have successfully completed their degrees! Aatresha defended her master’s thesis titled “Inkjet Printed Soil Sensors for Nitrate Leaching Quantification”. Muhammadeziz defended his Ph.D. dissertation titled “Printed nanomaterial-based sensors: from biosensing to temperature sensing applications”. Aatresha will move on to a position at Intel as a process engineer and Muhammadeziz will …
The Andrews’ research group has received funding from USDA and NSF to continue their work on developing new soil sensing technologies to enable low-cost, distributed soil moisture and nutrient monitoring.
We’ve recently published two new papers: one review paper on printable carbon nanotube thin-film transistors for display applications and one conference paper on fully printable and electronic COVID-19 screening tests. See more info below: “Recent Advances in Printable Carbon Nanotube Transistors for Large-Area Active Matrices” by Kevin Schnittker, Muhammadeziz Tursunniyaz, and Joseph Andrews. Published in …
Erick Yin, a second-year undergraduate researcher in LPES, has received a University of Wisconsin-Madison Hilldale Undergraduate Fellowship Award. The fellowship will support his work in developing a fully printable soil sensing solution to quantify nitrate leaching levels. His work will be highly relevant to Wisconsin’s agricultural infrastructure, and exemplifies his commitment to the “Wisconsin Idea”. …
Prof. Joseph Andrews will provide a tutorial talk at FLEPS 2020 titled: “Printed Electronics from Nanomaterials: A Pathway to Ubiquitous Electronic Sensing”. An abstract of the talk can be seen below: As the connected future promised by the Internet-Of-Things expands, there is a need for ubiquitous electronic devices and sensors. New devices and sensors will …
Now that the aerosol jet and inkjet printers are setup in the lab, we had to try printing Wisconsin’s favorite badger. This Bucky is printed from a conducting silver nanoparticle ink. It was printed using our Dimatix Inkjet printer and represents a demonstration of the versatility of the tool. Check out the video here.
