Abstract

In this paper, a new revolutionary 3D manufacturing approach to rapid processing of 3D microstructures in both soft (SU-8) and rigid (Si) materials is introduced. This technique facilitates very fast prototyping without the need of masks, resulting in a low-cost, short-turnaround flexible fabrication process.
