Printed electronics have been attracting significant interest for their potential to enable flexible and wearable electronic applications. Together with printable semiconductors, solution processed dielectric inks are key in enabling low-power and high-performance printed electronics. In the quest for suitable dielectrics inks, two-dimensional materials such as hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) have emerged in the form of printable dielectrics. In this work, we report barium titanate (BaTiO3) nanoparticles as an effective additive for inkjet-printable h-BN inks. The resulting inkjet printed h-BN/BaTiO3 thin films reach a dielectric constant (εr) of ~ 16 by adding 10% of BaTiO3 nanoparticles (in their volume fraction to the exfoliated h-BN flakes) in water-based inks. This result enabled all-inkjet printed flexible capacitors with C ~ 10.39 nF cm-2, paving the way to future low power, printed and flexible electronics.

Abstract

Printed electronics have been attracting significant interest for their potential to enable flexible and wearable electronic applications. Together with printable semiconductors, solution processed dielectric inks are key in enabling low-power and high-performance printed electronics. In the quest for suitable dielectrics inks, two-dimensional materials such as hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) have emerged in the form of printable dielectrics. In this work, we report barium titanate (BaTiO3) nanoparticles as an effective additive for inkjet-printable h-BN inks. The resulting inkjet printed h-BN/BaTiO3 thin films reach a dielectric constant (εr) of ~ 16 by adding 10% of BaTiO3 nanoparticles (in their volume fraction to the exfoliated h-BN flakes) in water-based inks. This result enabled all-inkjet printed flexible capacitors with C ~ 10.39 nF cm-2, paving the way to future low power, printed and flexible electronics.
