| Abstract Scope |
My research group focuses on the development of 3D printing technologies to create multifunctional structures and devices that cannot be fabricated with conventional fabrication methods. We seek to advance the scientific understanding of the assembly and processing of functional nanomaterials to functionalize a wide range of constructs. Developing the ability to 3D print various classes of materials possessing distinct properties could enable the freeform generation of active electronics in unique functional, interwoven architectures. Here we are developing a multi-scale extrusion-based 3D printing approach that enables the integration of diverse classes of materials to create a variety of 3D printed electronics and functional devices with active properties that are not easily achieved using standard microfabrication techniques. As an example, I will highlight the development of 3D printed quantum-dots light-emitting diode, which extended the reach of 3D printing and demonstrated that active electronic materials and devices can be entirely 3D printed. |
