Micro‐scale Truss Structures formed from Self‐Propagating Photopolymer Waveguides

Abstract: Materials with significant porosity, generally termed cellular solids, exhibit unique properties unachievable by their solid counterparts. These characteristics, which may include ultra-low density, high surface area per unit volume, and/or improved impact absorption, are greatly influenced by both the degree of open porosity and the physical arrangement of the solid material within the cellular structure. Ordered cellular structures generally exhibit superior stiffness and peak strength relative to random cel… Show more

“…As parylene has a much lower yield strength than nickel, parylene microlattices should remain yielding-limited down to a density of ∼0.0043 g/cm 3 . The observed transition is at a density of ∼0.02 g/cm 3 .…”

“…In contrast to traditional cellular materials (e.g., foams and aerogels), where stochastic methods determine cellular architecture, we study ordered hollow lattices 1 which allow a high degree of control over cellular architecture. Polymer microlattice templates were formed by a unique photopolymerization process which involves an array of intersecting self-propagating waveguides, 3 but could also be fabricated by 3D printing. Several thin film materials were subsequently deposited by a variety of deposition techniques and the solid polymer lattice template was removed by chemical etching.…”

“…The versatility of current fabrication methods and processing techniques engenders a virtually unbounded potential design space by which new materials can be created [8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17]. Despite many proof-of-concept demonstrations, very few guiding principles exist for designing architectures that efficiently integrate structural and microstructural deformation mechanisms.…”

“…All devices are manufactured in Off-Stoichiometry-Thiol-Ene (OSTE), which previously has demonstrated excellent lithographic properties 20 and easy surface modification. 21 To realize the slanted pillar geometry, we utilize multidirectional UV-lithography, previously used for stoichiometric Thiol-Enes 22 and ThiolEne-Epoxies, 23 which is here realized in a single exposure using an angled mirror setup as illustrated in Fig. 1c (see Fig.…”
