Breakthrough Copper Ink Could Transform Printed Electronics

Details
Published: 27 May 2026

Congratulations to Professor Shenqiang Ren and collaborators on this impactful achievement published in Science.

Researchers at the University of Maryland developed a novel reactive copper ink that resists oxidation and corrosion while enabling low-temperature printing on a variety of surfaces. The technology could provide a lower-cost alternative to silver inks used in electronics, energy systems, and advanced manufacturing. More details here.
