    摘要: One facilitates determination of a path that comprises a plurality of specific locations (201). In an optional though preferred embodiment these specific locations comprise locations where a given functional ink will preferably be printed using a continuous printing spray. Also in an optional though preferred embodiment this path will also avoid at least one predetermined area (701) where such a functional ink should not be printed. In a preferred approach this process (100) generally provides for identifying (101) these specific locations and further identifying (102), when applicable, the one or more predetermined areas to be avoided. This process then preferably uses a processor to effect at least one (and preferably both) of using (103) a genetic algorithm to identify a preferred path that includes the plurality of specific locations and using (104) an A* algorithm to process a candidate path to provide a selected path that includes the plurality of specific locations while also avoiding the at least one predetermined area.

    摘要: An inverter circuit (500) having a drive transistor (102) that operably couples to a voltage bias input (101) (and where that drive transistor controls the inverter circuit output by opening and closing a connection between the output (105) and ground (104)) is further operably coupled to a feedback switch (401). In a preferred approach the feedback switch is itself also operably coupled to the voltage bias input and the output and preferably serves, when the drive transistor is switched “off,” to responsively couple the voltage bias input to the drive transistor in such a way as to cause a gate terminal of the drive transistor to have its polarity relative to a source terminal of the drive transistor reversed and hence permit the inverter circuit to operate across a substantially full potential operating range of the drive transistor.

    摘要: A functional ink (200) suitable for use as a dielectric layer (303) in a printed semiconductor device (300) comprises a dielectric carrier (201) and a plurality of dielectric particles (202) sized less than about 1,000 nanometers that are disposed within the dielectric carrier. In a preferred approach the dielectric carrier comprises a dielectric resin and the dielectric particles comprise a ferroelectric material (such as, but not limited to, BaTiO3. So provided, this functional ink can be applied to a substrate (301) of choice through a printing technique of choice to thereby provide a resultant printed semiconductor device, such as a field effect transistor, having a relatively thin dielectric layer comprised of this functional ink.

    摘要: A printing platform receives (102) (preferably in-line with a semiconductor device printing process (101)) a substrate having at least one semiconductor device printed thereon and further having a test structure printed thereon, which test structure comprises at least one printed semiconductor layer. These teachings then provide for the automatic testing (103) of the test structure with respect to at least one static (i.e., relatively unchanging) electrical characteristic metric. The static electrical characteristic metric (or metrics) of choice will likely vary with the application setting but can include, for example, a measure of electrical resistance, a measure of electrical reactance, and/or a measure of electrical continuity. Optionally (though preferably) the semiconductor device printing process itself is then adjusted (105) as a function, at least in part, of this metric.
