The Effect of Humidity on Microwave Characteristics of 2 Screen Printed Paper-Based Electronics (2018)
Journal Article
Shenton, S. A., Cooke, M. D., Racz, Z., Balocco, C., & Wood, D. (2018). The Effect of Humidity on Microwave Characteristics of 2 Screen Printed Paper-Based Electronics. physica status solidi (a) – applications and materials science, 215(11), Article 1700689. https://doi.org/10.1002/pssa.201700689

This paper addresses one of the key issues in using paper electronics at microwave frequencies. As paper is hygroscopic, the varying moisture content can lead to differing dielectric and even conductive properties of paper electronics and must be tak...

Fabrication of micron scale metallic structures on photo paper substrates by low temperature photolithography for device applications (2015)
Journal Article
Cooke, M., & Wood, D. (2015). Fabrication of micron scale metallic structures on photo paper substrates by low temperature photolithography for device applications. Journal of Micromechanics and Microengineering, 25(11), Article 115017. https://doi.org/10.1088/0960-1317/25/11/115017

Using commercial standard paper as a substrate has a significant cost reduction implication over other more expensive substrate materials by approximately a factor of 100 (Shenton et al 2015 EMRS Spring Meeting; Zheng et al 2013 Nat. Sci. Rep. 3 1786... Read More about Fabrication of micron scale metallic structures on photo paper substrates by low temperature photolithography for device applications.

The static and dynamic response of SU-8 electrothermal microgrippers of varying thickness (2015)
Journal Article
Dodd, L., Ward, S., Cooke, M., & Wood, D. (2015). The static and dynamic response of SU-8 electrothermal microgrippers of varying thickness. Microelectronic Engineering, 145, 82-85. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.mee.2015.03.028

This work presents an investigation into the effect on dynamic response of SU-8 microgrippers due to varying thickness, and subsequent validation via COMSOL Multiphysics simulations and thermal camera profiling during actuation. The tweezer-like micr... Read More about The static and dynamic response of SU-8 electrothermal microgrippers of varying thickness.
