Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a method of manufacturing a liquid metal-based electrode using a light sintering process. The method of manufacturing a liquid metal-based electrode includes a step of preparing a metal nanoparticle solution, a step of adding metal micron particles and a surface modifier to the metal nanoparticle solution to prepare a mixed solution, a step of adding a liquid metal to the mixed solution to prepare a composite ink containing the liquid metal having a surface oxide film formed thereon, a step of forming an electrode by applying the composite ink onto a substrate, and a step of irradiating the electrode with light to destroy the surface oxide film.
