Problems solved by technology

[0003] Compared with positive transfer printing, negative transfer printing and printing transfer printing, ink transfer printing has the advantages of lower cost, lower environmental requirements in the process and higher efficiency, and is more suitable for micro-nano devices with high yield requirements However, for the transfer printing of devices requiring large aspect ratio microstructures, the success rate of ink transfer is low or it is difficult to achieve the transfer printing of large aspect ratio microstructures, while in OLED, RFID, solar cells, In many fields of optoelectronics, such as touch display screen, transparent electric heating film, transparent electrode, etc., the conductive microstructure with large aspect ratio can meet the higher demand of optoelectronic performance.
Therefore, the current micro-transfer printing technology is difficult to achieve the effective transfer of high-aspect-ratio microstructures, which has become a major bottleneck for its wide application.
