Seems that the world first semiconductor printing machine has arrived. I’m talking about a machine that works like an inkjet printer, but it sprays silver on to a substrate in a pattern that creates the circuitry layout. Whoa! Now that is some impressive technology. It prints 100sm thick and can be 10 atoms wide. That’s right ATOMS! Just to give you an idea a human hair is measured at 50,000nm (nm = nanaometers or one billionth of a meter) nm are larger than sm.
Well, what will they use this for? The Compay, NanoIdent,
says mostly for medicial science, security devices, and biometic locking devices.
Nanoident also claimed the ‘ink’ is absolutely 100 per cent environmentally friendly and has no waste. Because the precision used in the spraying process there is no extra product created. Well, seems if you able to get it down to 10 atoms wide you have got it worked out – No Waste.
I think that RFID technology and this company is a match made in the metavearse. I can see how “security” would get a real kick out of this new technology. Printed Semiconductors…We really are living in 2k….
