摘要
The application of conductive inks for the low-cost fabrication of wireless sensors is described. Binder-free silver inks have been formulated, which can form pure metallic patterns, leading to devices with high quality factors. The conductive formulations have been screen-printed on flexible polyester films and thermally converted to silver traces at low temperatures to yield resonant inductor-interdigital capacitor elements. The radio-frequency (RF) response of the printed inductor-capacitor (LC) resonators is measured using a vector network analyzer. Structural damage such as a crack in the substrate disrupts the resonant characteristics of the sensing elements, resulting in the loss of the characteristic response of the LC circuit. The application of these screen-printable sensors for the detection of cracks is demonstrated.
