Silver (Ag), gold (Au), and copper (Cu) have been utilized as metals for fabricating metal-based inks/pastes for printed/flexible electronics. Among them, Cu is the most promising candidate for metal-based inks/pastes. Cu has high intrinsic electrical/thermal conductivity, which is more cost-effective and abundant, as compared to Ag. Moreover, the migration tendency of Cu is less than that of Ag. Thus, recently, Cu-based inks/pastes have gained increasing attention as conductive inks/pastes for printed/flexible electronics. However, the disadvantages of Cu-based inks/pastes are their instability against oxidation under an ambient condition and tendency to form insulating layers of Cu oxide, such as cuprous oxide (Cu2O) and cupric oxide (CuO). The formation of the Cu oxidation causes a low conductivity in sintered Cu films and interferes with the sintering of Cu particles. In this review, we summarize the surface and interface designs for Cu-based conductive inks/pastes, in which the strategies for the oxidation resistance of Cu and low-temperature sintering are applied to produce highly conductive Cu patterns/electrodes on flexible substrates. First, we classify the Cu-based inks/pastes and briefly describe the surface oxidation behaviors of Cu. Next, we describe various surface control approaches for Cu-based inks/pastes to achieve both the oxidation resistance and low-temperature sintering to produce highly conductive Cu patterns/electrodes on flexible substrates. These surface control approaches include surface designs by polymers, small ligands, core-shell structures, and surface activation. Recently developed Cu-based mixed inks/pastes are also described, and the synergy effect in the mixed inks/pastes offers improved performances compared with the single use of each component. Finally, we offer our perspectives on Cu-based inks/pastes for future efforts.

Highly Conductive, Flexible, and Oxidation-Resistant Cu-Ni Electrodes Produced from Hybrid Inks at Low Temperatures

Daisuke Tomotoshi, Rika Oogami, Hideya Kawasaki

Summary: A new conductive Cu-Ni-based hybrid ink has been proposed, which can be sintered at 150-180 degrees C to produce Cu-Ni electrodes with low electrical resistance, high oxidation resistance, and flexibility. The Cu flakes and NiF-AmIP complex in the hybrid ink catalyze the self-reduction process, forming Cu-Ni electrodes with high conductivity at temperatures exceeding 150 degrees C. The Cu-Ni electrodes demonstrated high stability against oxidation and mechanical bending stress, showing great potential for printed/flexible devices.

Controlled aggregation of methylene blue in silica-methylene blue nanocomposite for enhanced 1O2 generation

Satoshi Saita, Maho Anzai, Nanase Mori, Hideya Kawasaki

Summary: Organic photosensitizers often self-aggregate, leading to the inactivation of their photosensitizing capabilities, which necessitates controlled aggregation for their applications. This study presents a strategy for enhancing the generation of O-1(2) by suppressing the self-aggregation of methylene blue through a nanocomposite of porous silica nanoaggregates and methylene blue.

Summary: In this study, the antibacterial activity of a hydrogel system composed of sodium alginate (SA) and basic chitosan (CS) was improved by adding AgNPs using sodium hydrogen carbonate. SA-coated AgNPs were produced via ascorbic acid or microwave heating, and their antimicrobial activity was evaluated. The microwave-assisted method was found to produce uniform and stable SA-AgNPs with an optimal reaction time of 8 minutes. The SA-AgNPs/CS gel formed successfully and demonstrated higher mechanical strength and low cytotoxicity, exhibiting inhibition zones against E. coli and B. subtilis.
