Cutting the Cost of Micro- and Nanomanufacturing
A drawing programme and a 3D printer: before long, that could be all it will take to produce the micro- and nanostructures required for the millions of devices and sensors of the future. With a new manufacturing technology, researchers at KTH Microsystem Technology hope to bring mass innovation capabilities to smaller companies and markets — just as affordable computers have dramatically increased innovation in information technology.
