| Abstract Scope |
Direct laser writing (DLW) based on two photon polymerization has emerged as a very popular 3D microfabrication method since it can be seen as an extension of 3D printer at the micro and nanoscale. Moreover, this technology has proven its unrivalled ability to sculpt the matters at the nanoscale. On the other hand, 4D printing concept appears in 2013 with the idea to facilitate the assembling of macroscopic objects. Nowadays, the fourth dimension refers not only to the ability for material objects to change form after they are produced, but also to their ability to change function after they are printed. Even if several groups have shown the possibility to employ functional material to bring this 4th dimension in their microstructure, the specific condition of photopolymerization in DLW limits the direct integration of stimuli-responsive material. Different alternatives will be discussed such as the use of living polymerization to reconfigure the surface properties of the generated microstructures. |
