Main directions in the development of additive technologies for micron-resolution printing

  • Published:
Inorganic Materials Aims and scope

Abstract

With the development of the key directions in additive technologies at a macrolevel, the proposed paradigm of the fabrication of objects finds application in the fabrication of microscopic structures. In particular, after the two-photon absorption effect was proposed in 1997 as a basis of a new, submicron-resolution printing method, more than a dozen additive manufacturing processes, which enable microstructures to be fabricated from not only metals but also polymers, have been developed in the past two decades.
