Processes for printing arrays of substantially parallel lines

This invention describes a method for creating patterns of parallel lines on a surface, primarily focusing on a spin printing technique. It involves continuously pushing a specific liquid mixture, containing functional particles and a special polymer, through a small opening to form a continuous thread. This thread is then used to build up the desired pattern, potentially in combination with ink jet printing as mentioned in the abstract.

Why it matters: Filed before significant advancements in microfluidics and precision additive manufacturing for electronics. The ability to precisely control the rheology and deposition of specialized particle-laden polymer compositions for fine electronic features has greatly improved since 2006.
