| Abstract Scope |
Multi-photon microfabrication (MPM) based on photopolymerization enables the production of 2D microstructures for opto-electronics by taking advantage of the very localized matter-laser interaction, both in space and time. MPM has also emerged as a very popular 3D microfabrication method since it can be seen as an extension of 3D printer at the microscale. This technology has proven its unrivalled ability to sculpt the matters at that scale, as highlighted by major breakthroughs in various fields. Today, one remaining challenge concerns the development of advanced materials to build functional microdevices for opto-electronical applications. In that context, I will introduce basic principles related to MPM, then I will discuss how one can take advantage of MPM to facilitate the integration of advanced materials for sensors applications. A special attention will be paid to the difficulties encountered to process functional materials and to the role of the processing parameter on their final properties. |
