Abstract
3D structuring using photo-sensitive polymers is an attractive additive manufacturing technique. In this technique, 3D structuring is achieved by layer-by-layer process in which 2D patterns of photopolymerized layers are stacked. In this paper, general feature and example of the precision 3D structures fabricated by micro-stereolithography method based on single-photon polymerization are described. In addition, advanced technique using stack of clustered 2D patterns has been demonstrated in order to decrease the adhesion strength between polymerized structure and laser input aperture window for the regulated liquid surface method in the micro-stereolithography technique.
