“TPL” is a well-understood technology for 3D printing extremely small structures. It typically involves focusing a laser at a tiny point within a resin vat, solidifying a very small region. By moving ...

Researchers at MIT have developed a rapid 3D-printing technique that uses liquid metal to allow for extremely fast prints. The process can manufacture large aluminum components in minutes, whereas ...

Soft lithography is a fabrication technique used to create micro- and nanoscale patterns. Developed in the early 1990s by George M. Whitesides and colleagues, it simplifies pattern formation by using ...

The ability to create intricate, nano-scale patterns is at the heart of nanotechnology, and lithography techniques are the tools that make this possible. From photolithography to FIB, each technique ...
