Design, Fabrication and Characterization of flexible laser reduced Silicon Carbide nanoparticle thermal heater sensor

In this paper, first time Silicon carbide (SiC) nanoparticles have been laser fabricated, characterized and introduced into the flexible Kapton substrate for thermal heater application. The primary attention is devoted to emerging thermal sensor applications for the nuclear industry, bringing a boon or a security purpose. The fabricated structures were characterized through the scan electron microscopy (SEM), ultra violet microscope (UV) used for absorbance and electrochemical oxidation and reduction in terms of stability of sillion carbide nanoparticles. Combining the excellent electrical properties of Silicon carbide and high temperature tolerance of polyimide, we demonstrated for the first time a flexible SiC sensor. A quick and simple approach is used to fast fabricate the thermal heater prototype. This facile method for synthesizing SiC nanoparticles provides a new idea for high-value thermal heater application for nuclear sensor.
