Why Plastic Circuits?

Why

When

How?

Current Market is highly influenced by Silicon. Silicon Circuits Production is Costlier Silicon Electronic Fabrication Doesnt meet Future Requirement. Companies Looking for Alternative of Silicon For Future Needs

WHAT IS POLYTRONICS??

Polymer + electronics Certain plastic(polymers) have conductive & light emitting property providing the basis of a new technology for flatpanel displays with excellent visibility

Benefits of Plastic Circuits

Flexible , Easy Upgradation. Consume Less Power Manufactured at Fraction of the cost Involved in making semiconductor chips. Plastic Fibres are potentially stronger then glass fibres. Circuit Production and Up gradation is easier. Can be rolled up like a paper

How Plastic Circuits Works?

Chemical Composition of plastics or conjugated polymers is changed by doping to make them conducting. Polymers polythiophenes, oligothiophenes and pentacene have conductive property. electronic behavior of these polymers is very different from inorganic semiconductors such as silicon or gallium arsenide

Based on OLED and innovative display, a device which can be rolled up while still having connectivity with internet world. This is possible through direct Inkjet Printing Technology. Economical to Produce. Real Time Display Updation

Plastic Batteries - Application Continued..

Both of the Electrodes and Electrolyte used in batteries are made of Polymers. Light Weight Reduced Shape and Size Can be recharged and reused a number of times without loss of power

Electroactive Polymers - Application Continued..

www.buzzparas.com

Artificial Muscles are known as Electroactive Polymers. Would help humans in body deformities Just like a Robotic Arm.

ADVANTAGES

freedom in design cheap foil substrates light-weight compact portable products cost-effective assembly with reel-toreel processing environment-friendly printing instead of lithography

CONCLUCION

provide a cheap method for the fabrication of simple low-cost electronic products Polymer materials offer a high degree of freedom and flexibility in the design of the materials, devices and systems

THE IDEA OF POLYTRONICS IS NOT TO REPLACE SILICON TECHNOLOGY BUT TO DEVELOP NEW APPLICATION IN CONJUNCTION WITH SILICON
