Abstract: | Laser-induced forward transfer (LIFT) has been investigated for the transfer of a polymeric material. This study focuses on the comparison of the printing process using conventional LIFT printing with a simple square mask and an optimized LIFT technique using a double mask setup, i.e. smart beam shaping (SBS). The purpose is to optimize the energy repartition on the donor layer using a beam profile with over-intensities at the edges and low intensities in the center. This allows the incoming irradiation fluence on the donor layer to be kept as low as possible in the central area, thus preventing the organic pixels being damaged by laser irradiation. The influence of the film’s thickness on the SBS efficiency is discussed. |
