This process uses a moving laser beam, directed by a computer, to prepare the model. The model is made up of layers having thicknesses about 0.005-0.020 in. (0.012-0.50 mm) that are polymerized into a solid product. Advanced techniques also provides fast manufacturing of precision molds (152). An example is the MIT three-dimensional printing (3DP) in which a 3-D metal mold (die, etc.) is created layer by layer using powdered metal (300- or 400-series stainless steel, tool steel, bronze, nickel alloys, titanium, etc.). Each layer is inkjet-printed with a plastic binder. The print head generates and deposits micron-sized droplets of a proprietary water-based plastic that binds the powder together.

DNA arrays are fabricated by immobilizing the complementary DNA (cDNA) onto a solid substrate such as silicon, nylon or glass. This can be achieved by robotic printing of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) products (also known as direct-deposition approach), photolithographical synthesis of complementary oligonucleotides or piezoelectric inkjet printing of PCR products (also known as indirect-deposition approach).

Any forms of contamination at the orifice will lead to the misdirection of the droplets hence, the inkjet printing method requires that the orifice be free of contaminations. Damages at the orifice must be repaired in order to prevent the altering of the size of the...

The inkjet-printed (or inkjetted ) TFT operated with a mobility of 6.5cm2/ Vs and an on/off ratio of three digits as shown in Fig. 5.6b. This low mobility is attributed to the poor crystallinity and rough surface, whereas the large off current, which was confirmed to be the current between source and drain rather than a leakage current through the gate insulator, is also attributed to...
