In this study, we propose a method to fabricate three-dimensional (3D) magnetic microparts by the combination of two-photon microfabrication and electroless plating. In this method, polymeric microparts made by two-photon microfabrication are magnetized by electroless plating. In experiments, magnetic microparts could be successfully fabricated by modifying various experimental conditions of electroless plating. In addition, we demonstrated the magnetic microparts were attracted and driven by using a simple ferromagnet. In the near future, the magnetic microparts will be applied to not only functional lab-on-a-chip devices but also micromanipulation tools.
