From the Back Cover

Transfer printing (TP) is a class of techniques for the deterministic assembly of disparate micro/nanomaterials into functional devices, and has become an emerging suite of technologies for micro/nanofabrication. Systems enabled by transfer printing range from complex molecular-scale materials, to high-performance hard materials, to fully integrated devices. A variety of sub-techniques for different purposes have grown significantly in the past decade, leading to non-conventional electronics, optoelectronics, photovoltaics, and photonics, and enabling the development of non-planar and flexible electronics.Highlights breakthrough results and systems enabled by novel TP techniques.Highlights breakthrough results and systems enabled by novel TP techniques.Transfer Printing Technologies and Applications is a complete guide to transfer printing techniques and their cutting-edge applications.
