Title: Inkjet Printing of Single-Crystalline Bi₂Te₃ Thermoelectric Nanowire Networks

Abstract

Large-scale and low-cost fabrication techniques are needed to commercialize highly efficient, nanomaterial-based thermoelectric generators (TEGs) for use in small-scale, flexible applications (e.g., wearable energy harvesters). This study presents the first demonstration of inkjet-printed networks of phase-pure, single-crystalline Bi₂Te₃ thermoelectric nanowires (BTNWs) that are amenable to large-scale production. The BTNWs are synthesized via chemical batch processing and formulated into a jettable ink that is printed onto glass substrates and subsequently annealed in nitrogen and forming gas environments. The inkjet-printed BTNWs annealed in forming gas provide the most favorable results with comparable thermoelectric performances to bulk Bi₂Te₃ materials (Seebeck coefficient up to 140 µV K^-1) while approximately utilizing only 1% to 3% of the telluride materials found in their bulk counterparts. Thus, these printed BTNWs help pave the way for the development of low-cost and scalable TEGs.

Additive‐Free Aqueous MXene Inks for Thermal Inkjet Printing on Textiles

Journal Article Uzun, Simge ; Schelling, Marion ; Hantanasirisakul, Kanit ; ... - Small

Abstract Direct printing of functional inks onto flexible substrates allows for scalable fabrication of wearable electronics. However, existing ink formulations for inkjet printing require toxic solvents and additives, which make device fabrication more complex, limit substrate compatibility, and hinder device performance. Even water‐based carbon or metal nanoparticle inks require supplemental surfactants, binders, and cosolvents to produce jettable colloidal suspensions. Here, a general approach is demonstrated for formulating conductive inkjet printable, additive‐free aqueous Ti ₃ C ₂ T _x MXene inks for direct printing on various substrates. The rheological properties of the MXene inks are tuned by controlling the Ti ₃more »« less

Plasma-jet printing of colloidal thermoelectric Bi₂Te₃ nanoflakes for flexible energy harvesting

Journal Article Manzi, Jacob ; Weltner, Ariel E. ; Varghese, Tony ; ... - Nanoscale

Thermoelectric generators (TEGs) convert temperature differences into electrical power and are attractive among energy harvesting devices due to their autonomous and silent operation. While thermoelectric materials have undergone substantial improvements in material properties, a reliable and cost-effective fabrication method suitable for microgravity and space applications remains a challenge, particularly as commercial space flight and extended crewed space missions increase in frequency. This paper demonstrates the use of plasma-jet printing (PJP), a gravity-independent, electromagnetic field-assisted printing technology, to deposit colloidal thermoelectric nanoflakes with engineered nanopores onto flexible substrates at room temperature. We observe substantial improvements in material adhesion and flexibility withmore »« less

Inkjet-Printed Imbedded Graphene Nanoplatelet/Zinc Oxide Bulk Heterojunctions Nanocomposite Films for Ultraviolet Photodetection

Journal Article Cook, Brent ; Gong, Maogang ; Corbin, Alex ; ... - ACS Omega

A ZnO sol–gel precursor (ZnOPr) and graphene nanoplatelets (GnPs) are mixed into a composite ink for inkjet printing photodetectors with bulk heterojunctions of ZnO/GnP on a heated SiO₂/Si substrate. Heating of the SiO₂/Si wafers at ~50 °C was found optimal to prevent segregated droplets on the hydrophobic surface of the SiO₂/Si substrate during printing. After printing the ZnO/GnP channels, thermal annealing at 350 °C for 2 h was performed for crystallization of ZnO and formation of the ZnO/GnP heterojunctions. The GnP concentration was varied from 0, 5, 20, and 30 mM to evaluate optimal formation of the ZnO/GnP bulk heterojunctionmore »« less

3D Conformal Printing and Photonic Sintering of High‐Performance Flexible Thermoelectric Films Using 2D Nanoplates

Abstract Flexible thermoelectric (TE) devices hold great promise for energy harvesting and cooling applications, with increasing significance to serve as perpetual power sources for flexible electronics and wearable devices. Despite unique and superior TE properties widely reported in nanocrystals, transforming these nanocrystals into flexible and functional forms remains a major challenge. Herein, demonstrated is a transformative 3D conformal aerosol jet printing and rapid photonic sintering process to print and sinter solution‐processed Bi ₂ Te _2.7 Se _0.3 nanoplate inks onto virtually any flexible substrates. Within seconds of photonic sintering, the electrical conductivity of the printed film is dramatically improved frommore »« less

Inkjet printing of epitaxially connected nanocrystal superlattices

Access to a blossoming library of colloidal nanomaterials provides building blocks for complex assembled materials. The journey to bring these prospects to fruition stands to benefit from the application of advanced processing methods. Epitaxially connected nanocrystal (or quantum dot) superlattices present a captivating model system for mesocrystals with intriguing emergent properties. The conventional processing approach to creating these materials involves assembling and attaching the constituent nanocrystals at the interface between two immiscible fluids. Processing small liquid volumes of the colloidal nanocrystal solution involves several complexities arising from the concurrent spreading, evaporation, assembly, and attachment.
