Univ. of Maryland Researchers 3D Print Heaters for Nano-scale Manufacturing

In an effort to develop micro-scale heating elements, a research group at the University of Maryland was looking for alternative methods of manufacturing a heating element capable of targeting objects in a micro- or nano-scale environment. The researchers developed a method of 3D printing very small high-temperature, high-rate heaters capable of being applied to a wide range of nano-scale manufacturing processes. These micro heating units can be 3D printed in virtually any 3D shape using an extremely concentrated aqueous graphene oxide ink material.
