    摘要: The electrohydrodynamic print head includes a nozzle layer with a plurality of nozzles A feed layer is arranged above nozzle layer. It contains feed ducts for feeding ink to the nozzles as well as electrically conducting feed lines for feeding voltages to electrodes at nozzles. The feed layer includes one or more dielectric sublayers, which is/are structured to form the feed ducts and feed lines. Some of the sublayers contain vertical via sections and others contain horizontal interconnect sections. The feed layer is structured for customizing the print head easily.

    摘要: A system may include a controller configured to cause a capacitance probe to subject a material to a first electric signal having a first frequency and determine a first capacitance of the material at the first frequency. The controller is configured to cause the capacitance probe to subject the material to a second electric signal at a second frequency and determine a second capacitance of the material at the second frequency. The material includes at least a first constituent phase and a second constituent phase. The first constituent phase and the second constituent phase have substantially similar dielectric constants at the first frequency and substantially different dielectric constants at the second frequency. The controller is further configured to determine a porosity of the material based on the first capacitance and determine a relative phase composition of the first constituent phase and the second constituent phase based on the second capacitance.

    摘要: An electrohydrodynamic printing system includes a nozzle that dispenses a printing fluid and a substrate support. The nozzle includes a conductive portion. A voltage source applies a voltage differential between the conductive portion of the nozzle and the substrate support. A controller is configured to provide a burst mode waveform to the voltage source such that a drop of the printing fluid is caused to form from the conductive nozzle and travel toward the substrate support.
