I investigate how light can be used to program chemical reactions with high precision, enabling new materials and manufacturing technologies.
This work introduces antagonistic dual-wavelength control to tomographic volumetric printing. One wavelength drives polymerization while a second locally suppresses it, providing an additional route for controlling material formation inside the resin volume.
This study combines volumetric fabrication of a fluorinated polymer with closed-loop recovery of its fluorinated content. It connects rapid three-dimensional manufacturing with a chemical route for recovering a high-value molecular component.
This review examines the chemistry underlying light-based 3D printing of polyesters, from polymer synthesis and photochemical functionalization to resin formulation and fabrication.
A perspective on why wavelength-dependent photochemical reactivity cannot be inferred from absorption maxima alone, and how action-plot information can guide materials design.
A mechanistic overview of volumetric additive manufacturing linking optical dose, polymerization kinetics, transport, and material response.
A thiol–ene poly(ε-caprolactone) platform for rapid volumetric fabrication of biodegradable materials with tunable properties.
