Research summary
Disruptive technologies often stem from fundamental breakthroughs in material properties and fabrication capabilities. For the past 15 years, Dr. Sylvain Cloutier, Canada Research Chair in Inkjet-Printed Materials and Flexible Hybrid Electronic Devices, has conducted pioneering research into new printable solution-based materials and devices with unique properties, opening up exciting technological possibilities.
Now, he and his research team are using this knowledge—together with world-class infrastructure capabilities—to continue their exploration of inkjet-printed materials and flexible hybrid electronic devices. Their research will support the development of digitally printed technologies that will have profound societal impacts for the health, manufacturing, environment and defence sectors.
