Abstract:
Copper inks are provided that include a plurality of core-shell nanostructures, with each nanostructure including a copper core and a barrier metal shell, a diameter of less than about 500 nm, and a distinct boundary between the copper core and the barrier metal shell. Methods of forming a copper ink are further provided and include an initial step of synthesizing an amount of copper nanoparticles in an aqueous solution. An amount of a barrier metal is then added to the copper nanoparticles to form a dispersion of the barrier metal and the copper nanoparticles, and a reducing agent is subsequently added to the dispersion to produce a copper ink comprising core-shell nanostructures having a copper core and a barrier metal shell. Copper films are then formed by applying that copper ink to a substrate and sintering the copper ink.

Abstract:
In an anisotropic conductive adhesive containing a conductive particle, the conductive particle includes a resin particle that is provided with a cavity formed therein and a conductive layer surrounding a surface of the resin particle. The cavity is formed by mixing the resin particle with a reactant and partially removing the reactant from the resin particle. Thus, the conductive particle may readily absorb an external pressure, thereby providing an improved malleability to the conductive particle.
