- This paper demonstrates the enabling of future printed wireless structures on paper and tattoo transfers and compares different sintering techniques: thermal, plasma, and photonic as an essential step towards achieving high conductivity printed tracing on low cost and thermally sensitive materials. The structures achieve wireless performance, comparable to conventional manufacturing techniques, and the RFID tattoo plasma sintering results improve on thermal sintering. The significance is to demonstrate how additive manufacture on low cost materials with low thermal energy sintering produces structures for use in buildings with controllable wireless screening, and as tattoos for future wearable wireless health sensing.
