Microstereolithography is a technology at the interface of the microengineering and rapid prototyping domains. It has evolved from the stereolithography technique, and is also based on a light-induced layer- stacking manufacturing, As the resolution of the microstereolithography technique is far better than the one of rapid prototyping technologies, this technique is of particular interest in...Continue Reading

In this paper, a survey is made of some technologies in which the photo-definable polymer is used as structural material and where physical properties of polymers are modified to change porosity, mechanical or electrical properties. The paper is organized in three sections: (a) 2D, multilayer photopolymers, (b) High aspect ratio and (c) 3D micro-stereolithography technologies....Continue Reading
