N2 - Low viscosity, dilute inks of carbonaceous materials that tend to run, spread, and dry unevenly pose a major challenge towards ink jet printing approaches. A porous, planar stamp based methodology outlined here combines the advantages of ink jet and transfer printing while enabling printing of dilute inks comprising nanowires, nanotubes, nanoparticles, and biological molecules. Integration of ink jet and transfer printing is reported with agarose gel planar stamp, for carbon nanotube inks, enabling the formation of gate modulated channels between source and drain electrodes without necessitating any lithography steps.
