Printed electronics (PE) has been emerged as one of the key manufacturing processes for a wide variety of electronics products not only for home appliances but also for vehicles and for business-scale. The advances of nanomaterials, especially metallic and organic conductive materials, for PE brought printed electronics into the reality. Sensing components by using metallic nanowires enable us to replace the conventional ITO transparent electrode to affordable, flexible, bendable, and even stretchable touch sensors. Wearable devices are another hot topic of PE in the field of sports and fitness to healthcare. For wearable devices, not only wiring with metallic/organic materials, sensing, wireless transmission, and energy harvesting components must be equipped into a thin and flexible substrate with a suitable barrier structure. This presentation will provide the current status of various nanomaterials for PE.
