Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We conducted experimental studies on our technique that allows the fabrication of ceramic thin films on plastic substrates. First, even when fired at temperatures higher than 600℃, the ceramic thin films could be transferred to plastic substrates. Second, we noticed that there is an optimized thickness of release layers that enables successful transfer of ceramic thin films onto plastic subsrates. Third, plastic substrates with polar groups were demonstrated to have good adhesion, while those with no polar groups have poor adhesion. However, even such plastic substrates with no polar groups exhibit good adhesion when subjected beforehand by UV/ozone treatment, which oxidizes the substrate surface. Finally the degree of plastic substrate bending that is not accompanied by film cracking was found to decrease with increasing firing temperature.
