Architected stamps for liquid transfer printing
| DWPI Title: Architected stamp used for printing, comprises porous reservoir comprising multiple first pores and contact surface arranged at distal portion of reservoir, where multiple first pores are in fluidic communication with contact surface |
| Abstract: The present invention relates to architected stamps having beneficial printing properties. In particular, negative Poisson ratio structures and/or porous reservoirs can be employed to control fluid dynamics and to provide metered ink transfer. |
| Use: Architected stamp used for printing (claimed) and for liquid transfer printing. |
| Advantage: The architected stamp has beneficial printing property, employs negative Poisson ratio structure and/or porous reservoir to control fluid dynamics and to provide metered ink transfer, and enhances ink transfer to a substrate. |
| Novelty: Architected stamp 100 comprises a porous reservoir 103 comprising multiple first pores and a contact surface arranged at a distal portion 103A of the reservoir. The multiple first pores are in fluidic communication with the contact surface. The stamp comprises an ink transfer component 101 comprising multiple printing elements 102, where each of the multiple printing elements is in fluidic communication with the contact surface. |
