For home or small-office use, laser and inkjet printers are the most common choices. Both provide excellent print quality. ... Located inside each nozzle is a tiny piezoelectric crystal, ...

Scientists usually use thermal inkjet printers in cell-printing experiments because of concerns that the vibration frequency in piezoelectric printheads could affect the cells' viability or even ...

Epson printers use a piezoelectric vacuum system. Instead of a heating element, the piezoelectric crystal is located in the nozzle. When a current is applied to the crystal, it vibrates and ...

One such company is Philips, which is using a four-head industrial inkjet printer with 256 piezoelectric nozzles to print the fine arrays of organic light emitting diodes that will be used on ...

Scientists there have successfully used an inkjet printer to "print" rats' retinal cells onto a substrate, paving the way for the creation of custom-made eye-repair material.

Inkjet printers that commit electronic words and images to paper inhabit most computer-equipped homes and offices. Costing as little as $100, the machines form a multibillion-dollar industry. But ...

When there’s something to be printed, the printer sends an electrical signal to the piezoelectric crystal, which starts expanding, pushing ink towards the nozzle ...

Taking inspiration from the human eye, researchers at the University of Missouri have developed an inkjet print nozzle that prevents the printer head from becoming clogged when not in use.

(Medical Xpress)—A group of researchers from Cambridge have used inkjet printing technology to successfully print cells taken from the eye for the very first time.The breakthrough, which has ...

Suitable for piezoelectric transducers, high-current linear power amplifiers are playing an ever-expanding role in the development of new inkjet printer applications. Dennis Eddlemon, Senior ...
