Printing and Integration of Electronics on Flexible Substrates (Printed Electronics and Photovoltaics USA 2011)

 

Göran Gustafsson got his PhD in Applied Physics at Linköping University. After that he spent two years working with Prof. Alan J Heeger in his start-up company Uniax which now is part of DuPont Displays. His research focus was OLEDs and he demonstrated the first "all plastic" LED (Nature 1992). 1993 he returned to Linköping University where he participated in starting up OLED research. In 1994 he got the position as group manager at Industrial Microelectronics Center and was among other things responsible for setting up production of multi-chip module substrates. 1998 he participated in starting Thin Film Electronics AB (TFE) which develops polymer memories. At TFE he served as the R&D manager. Since June 2005 he is CTO of Printed Electronics at Acreo AB.

Our competence spans from novel materials to integrated systems and manufacturing. We have established a Platform of Printed Electronics components consisting of displays, transistors, diodes, and energy sources; which can be integrated into products creating innovative functionality. Acreo is primarily focusing on Packaging, Internet of Things and Health Care. In our printing facility we develop prototypes and have a small scale production of components and integrated systems.
