| Abstract Scope |
Two-photon polymerization (2PP) 3D-printing is the dominating technology to print micro- and nanoscale free-form structures. However, 2PP relies on the laser exposure of photosensitive materials, which are most commonly polymers. Over the last decade, pyrolysis post-print thermal conversion routes have been adopted as a powerful approach to convert 2PP-printed organic-inorganic templates into high-quality ceramic micro- and nanostructures. This talk provides a brief review of the recent progress and presents our current findings in expanding the approach towards a novel spectrum of technologically relevant inorganic materials. We report insight into fundamental pyrolysis mechanisms and their implications and discuss applications in mechanical metamaterials and beyond. |
