SUTD’s breakthrough research allows for 3D printed chocolate without temperature control
SUTD’s Soft Fluidics Lab developed a new approach, ‘Chocolate-based Ink 3D Printing’ (Ci3DP), to print chocolate-based inks at room temperature by cold extrusion.
Oscillation Assisted 3D Printing Renders Ultrafast Fabrication of Microlens Array
With increasing demand for miniaturization of optoelectronics, microlens array has attracted significant attention and become an important micro-optics device widely used in compact imaging, sensing, optical communication and others. Typically, microlens array consists of multiple micron-sized lenses with optical surface smoothness and superior uniformity, which increases the requirement for machining precision.
