Micro-masonry for 3D additive micromanufacturing.
Transfer printing is a method to transfer solid micro/nanoscale materials (herein called 'inks') from a substrate where they are generated to a different substrate by utilizing elastomeric stamps. Transfer printing enables the integration of heterogeneous materials to fabricate unexampled structures or functional systems that are found in recent advanced devices such as flexible and stretchable...
متن کاملDirected Fluidic Self-assembly of Microscale Tiles
In this paper we present a novel microfabrication method in which regular, micro-scaled units are made to self-assemble into arbitrary, reconfigurable structures. We describe a series of experiments that involve the assembly of silicon microtiles in a multilayer PDMS microchamber. By controlling the local flow conditions in a microchannel array, the attraction, bonding, migration, and rejection...
متن کاملElectrodeposition of Au for Self-Assembling 3D Micro-Structures
Rotation of structures fabricated by planar processing into out-of-plane orientations can be used to greatly increase the 3-dimensionality of microstructures. Previously this has been achieved by a self-assembly process based on surface tension in meltable hinges. An important application is in fabricating vertical inductors on silicon, to reduce the substrate coupling and thus increase quality...
متن کاملSelf-Assembly: From Nanoscale to Microscale Colloids
Self-assembly is a fundamental mechanism by which structures form in materials. Over the past decades, a primary focus has been to relate materials’ behaviors to the spatial arrangement of their fundamental building blocks. These building blocks may comprise atoms, molecules, macromolecules and colloidal particles. It is well known that the same chemical substance can have vastly different prop...
متن کاملSelf-assembly of 3D prestressed tensegrity structures from DNA
Tensegrity, or tensional integrity, is a property of a structure indicating a reliance on a balance between components that are either in pure compression or pure tension for stability. Tensegrity structures exhibit extremely high strength-to-weight ratios and great resilience, and are therefore widely used in engineering, robotics and architecture. Here, we report nanoscale, prestressed, three...
