    Electrowriting of SU-8 Microfibers

    by Diego Armando Sandoval Salaiza, Nico Valsangiacomo, Niyazi Ulas Dinç, Mustafa Yildirim, Jorge Madrid-Wolff, Arnaud Bertsch, Sebastien Jiguet, Paul D. Dalton, Juergen Brugger, Christophe Moser

    As microfiber-based additive manufacturing (AM) technologies, melt electrowriting (MEW) and solution electrowriting (SEW) have demonstrated efficacy with more biomedically relevant materials. By processing SU-8 resin using MEW and SEW techniques, a material with substantially different mechanical, thermal, and optical properties than that typically processed is introduced. SU-8 polymer is temperature sensitive and requires the devising of a specific heating protocol to be properly processed. Smooth-surfaced microfibers resulted from MEW of SU8 for a short period (from 30 to 90 min), which provides the greatest control and, thus, reproducibility of the printed microfibers. This investigation explores various parameters influencing the electrowriting process, printing conditions, and post-processing to optimize the fabrication of intricate 3D structures. This work demonstrates the controlled generation of straight filaments and complex multi-layered architectures, which were characterized by brightfield, darkfield, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). This research opens new avenues for the design and development of 3D-printed photonic systems by leveraging the properties of SU-8 after both MEW and SEW processing.


  • Conductive SU8 Photoresist for Microfabrication

    by S. Jiguet, A. Bertsch, H. Hofmann, P. Renaud

    A conductive composite photoresist has been developed for the direct photopatterning of electrodes. It is based on a dispersion of silver nanoparticles in SU8, a non‐conductive, negative‐tone photoresist. Manufactured structures have an electrical conductivity at a low silver content of around 6 vol.‐%.


  • SU8‐Silver Photosensitive Nanocomposite

    by S. Jiguet, A. Bertsch, H. Hofmann, P. Renaud

    A photosensitive composite resist having electrical properties has been developed for the direct photopatterning of electrically conductive microcomponents. This composite material is based on the dispersion of silver nanoparticles into the SU‐8 photopolymer, an insulating negative‐tone photoresist. Electrical and optical characterizations reveal a wide range of electrical conductivity of the composite structures depending of the filler load, and a lateral resolution better than 5 μm.
