本文介绍了一种可靠且低成本的溶液处理方法，通过卷对卷印刷结合化学沉积（ELD）在纸基上合成用于射频识别（RFID）标签的低电阻率金属天线。银前驱体油墨具有良好的印刷适性，通过添加羟乙基纤维素（HEC）和调整油墨组分的配比，可以保持60天以上的稳定性能。通过一系列表征证明，当化学镀铜时间为25 min时，在基体上形成了结晶度好、均匀性好、纯度高的铜层。此外，可以获得89 μm的窄铜线，而电阻率低至2.22 μΩ cm。证明柔版卷对卷印刷制备的RFID铜层天线具有合格的机械性能和与IC芯片的良好阻抗匹配，即使经过800次弯曲，RFID标签的读取距离仍可保持96%。结果表明，改进后的技术可用于在纸基板上制造RFID标签的金属天线。此外，这些结果表明这种无颗粒前驱体油墨在大规模柔性印刷电子领域具有巨大的潜力。•开发了一种具有优异印刷性能和存储性能的UV油墨。•通过卷对卷印刷可以获得低电阻率和精细的铜层。•RFID标签天线即使在800次弯曲后仍保持良好的读取性能。
A reliable and low-cost solution-processing procedure to synthesize low-resistivity metal antenna for radio frequency identification (RFID) tags on paper substrates via roll-to-roll printing combined with electroless deposition (ELD) is demonstrated in this paper. The silver precursor ink has good printability and can maintain stable performance for more than 60 days via adding hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC) and adjusting the ratio of ink components. Through a series of characterizations proved that a copper layer with good crystallinity, uniformity and high purity had been formed on the substrate when the electroless copper plating time was 25 min. In addition, the narrow copper wire of 89 μm can be obtained, while the electrical resistivity was as low as 2.22 μΩ cm. It is proved that the RFID copper layer antenna prepared by flexographic roll-to-roll printing has qualified mechanical properties and excellent impedance matching with the IC chip, and even after 800 bends, the reading distance of the RFID tag can still maintain 96%. It can be concluded that the improved technology can be used to fabricate metal antenna for RFID tags on a paper substrate. Furthermore, these results suggest the great potential of this particle-free precursor ink in the field of large-scale flexible printed electronics. • A UV ink with excellent printability and storage performance was developed. • A low-resistivity and fine copper layer can be obtained by roll-to-roll printing. • RFID tag antenna maintains good reading performance even after 800 bends.
