Faster, cheaper, nano-based manufacturing Scalable and cost-effective manufacturing of thin film devices Spherical silver nanoparticles and nanowires after being fused by intense pulses of light. Credit: Rajiv Malhotra/Rutgers University-New Brunswick Engineers at Rutgers University-New Brunswick and Oregon State University are developing a new method of processing nanomaterials that could lead to faster and cheaper manufacturing of flexible thin film devices -- from touch screens to window coatings, according to a new study. The "intense pulsed light sintering" method uses high-energy light over an area nearly 7,000 times larger than a laser to fuse nanomaterials in seconds. Nanomaterials are materials characterized...
