[nanoPost] Functional nanocoating for RFID

Research Centre Denmark

Primary interest is micro and nanostructuring of soft (polymer) materials, both topographic (micro injection moulding, embossing) and chemical (plasmapolymerisation, printing). Presently this activity is undertaken in their clean-room laboratory (class 10) where the following facilities are available:

E-beam lithography (for making nano-patterns in stamps and molds);

Soft-plasma (for chemical derivatisation of polymer surfaces);

Printing and coating (e.g. for making conducting surface patterns - their present ability: 1.5 um lines of polymer conductors having 1000 S/cm conductivity);

AFM, SEM and optical microscopy.

The lab has an activity on Functional Coatings, specifically aiming at utilizing conducting coatings in e.g. RFID or EMI shielding. They also work on the development of micro actuators and sensors (based on electroactive polymers)
