Nanomarkets Releases White Paper On Nanocrystalline Silicon And Silicon Inks

Glen Allen, VA―NanoMarkets, an industry analyst firm, has just issued a new white paper on nanocrystalline silicon and silicon inks. The paper was drawn from a previously issued NanoMarkets report, Opportunities for Nanocrystalline Silicon and Silicon Inks in Electronics that analyzes and forecasts the prospects for organic electronics materials in the coming eight years. The white paper can be accessed at no cost from the firm’s website at www.nanomarkets.net.

About the Paper:

NanoMarkets’ new white paper examines the promising efforts to print silicon materials with the goal of achieving cost/performance breakthroughs in the areas of computer memories, RFID, display backplanes, lighting and photovoltaics. It explores how printed silicon compares to alternative paradigms, especially organic electronics, and how it can be made to fit into a market that is increasingly moving to flexible substrates. The paper also takes a look at the development directions of some of the leading edge firms in the printed silicon space.

About the Report:

NanoMarkets’ report, Opportunities for Nanocrystalline Silicon and Silicon Inks in Electronics is the first report of its kind that analyzes and forecasts the market potential for silicon inks and nanocrystalline materials in electronics applications. The report examines what firms are doing in this space today and how these important new silicon materials are likely to evolve commercially in the future. The report also includes a detailed discussion of how and when these materials will be used in applications such as photovoltaics, lighting, RFIDs, display backplanes and computer memory. It also discusses the technical issues around making nanocrystalline materials and inks and how these materials are likely fair in the marketplace in competition with other semiconductor materials.
