Multimaterial Inkjet Technology for the fabrication of Microwave Components

in this paper, we report the printing of multilayer-structures mixing silver nanoparticles and low temperature fired ceramics based inks. The conductivity of the silver ink is characterized up to 20GHz and above, and the typical performances of the technology and used dielectric material are given. A metallo-dielectric printed capacitor is finally presented as a first demonstrator.
