In one embodiment, a magnet includes a plurality of layers, each layer having a microstructure of sintered particles. The particles in at least one of the layers are characterized as having preferentially aligned magnetic orientations in a first direction.
Greenbodies of SmCoO prior to conversion to SmCo 5 and magnetometry showing excellent hard magnetic properties, resilient to >600 °C.
Studying the effect of resin RI on print fidelity. Chemically modifying RI resins to demonstrate 3D structures print without height limitation resulting on ceramic and nonceramic print as tall as 2.5 mm with sub-micron features.
Two-photon polymerization (TPP) is a unique fabrication technique that enables sub-micron scale resolution. Herein, we report on uniaxial tensile tests on millimeter-sized TPP log-pile structures that were fabricated using a recently developed interdigitated stitching strategy. As expected, the Young’s modulus increased with laser intensity, however elastic modulus, ultimate strength and strain-at-failure varied widely, even for nominally identical samples. Post-mortem analysis revealed a series of print defects resulting from various sources including misalignments, resin shrinkage, laser beam shadowing, and local depletion of the oxygen inhibitor. While some of the defects can be eliminated, such as misalignments due to insufficient precision of the mechanical stage, others are more intrinsic to TPP and thus more difficult to address.
