Abstract

A controlled magnetic field creates patterns of superparamagnetic nanoparticles with a minimum line width of 10 μm on a flexible substrate. This magnetic printing method is also successfully used to print conductive patterns consisting of copper or carbon nanomaterials.

Keywords: carbon nanotubes; graphite nanosheets; magnetic materials; nanomaterials; self-assembly.
