To synthesize recent developments in direct ink writing technologies for 3D functional materials and examine the transition toward sub-micron and finer feature dimensions.
Reviewed direct-write assembly processes that construct complex geometries without using dies, molds, or lithographic masks.
Assessed technological integration across applications in photonics, tissue engineering scaffolds, microfluidics, and structural composites.
Direct ink writing provides flexible, rapid manufacturing capabilities for complex 3D shapes across multiple material types without pre-patterned tooling.
Engineering modifications have increasingly pushed fabrication capabilities toward finer feature resolutions, addressing key microscale fabrication bottlenecks.
