Project Title: Sustainability of Printed and Flexible Hybrid Electronics
Required EE Area(s) of Expertise: Micro and Nano Scale Systems
Brief Project Description: Study and establish a baseline model for determining the sustainability impact of Printed and Flexible Hybrid Electronics. One of the major features of PE/FHE is the ability to create electronics on natural materials products are made of. This inherently means that the products are difficult to disassemble but an opportunity exists to compare the complete lifecycle impact of PCBA/Silicon product manufacturing vs printed and flexible hybrid electronics.
Major system products expected from this project: Complete end to end elements that contribute to the sustainability of electronics Model to determine the impact or an index for PE/FHE Factors that would help improve or showcase sustainability of PE/FHE
Parts of the project that “Engineering Design” is expected (e.g., mathematical calculations and/or verification simulations): Model to determine the impact or an index for PE/FHE
The level of support (Time: technical guidance, materials, computing, financial, etc.) for the project. If no financial support will be provided, please offer an estimate of the Materials Cost: Estimated mentoring time: 2 hours per week Estimated materials: TBD Estimated budget: TBD
