【 摘 要 】

Additive manufacturing techniques for electronics, including Aerosol Jet Printing (AJP), Syringe Printing, and Ink Jet Printing, will enable new detector assemblies that were not previously possible with traditional assembly processes. This technology has the potential to reduce mass and volume for fabrication and assembly of detector, instrument and electronics concepts by reducing trace widths down to 10 microns, printing on complex geometries, and allowing new concept production. This presentation summarizes efforts developing printing techniques to manufacture detectors and circuitry for space applications.
