The design strategy of laser ablation dry aerosol printing (LADAP) and its key characteristics

Caption

Using pulsed laser ablation, solid targets are transformed into dry nanoparticle aerosols. These aerosols are focused by carrier gas and deposited directly onto substrates, enabling high-throughput, inkless printing of functional materials. Laser ablation dry aerosol printing (LADAP) offers versatile capabilities for printing materials in several ways.
