3D Metallic Structures: A Review on Micro/Nanoforming to Fabricate 3D Metallic Structures (Adv. Mater. 6/2021)

In article number 2000893, Debin Shan, Bin Guo, and co-workers survey the recent progress of micro/nano forming techniques for fabricating 3D metallic structures. The complex interplay among factors that influence so-called size effect occurs in terms materials, processes, tools machines during forming. High energies physical (electrical, ultrasonic, magnetic, thermal, etc.) fields directly/indirectly act on material aggregation, transfer, absorption, conversion multiscale structures, producing structures high quality with great application potential microelectronics, aerospace, automotive, medical engineering.
