Topics TADAM3D-µP – Summer School 2026
1: “LED cube”
Goal: design and manufacture of LED cube with integrated wiring and LEDs using additive component embedding and ink-jet printing on flexible foldable substrate
2: “Soft Gripper”
Goal: design and manufacture of so-called soft grippers with nature/gecko inspired microstuctured surfaces using DMD/2PP-lithography, that allow to pick up delicate samples.
3: “Arrayed waveguide gratings”
Goal: design and manufacture of Arrayed waveguide gratings (AWG) as a planar waveguide structure using Direct Laser Writing (DLW), based on DMD and TPP lithography maskless processing
4: “Lab-on-a-chip”
Goal: design and manufacture of microfluidic chip (microchannels: SLA and PDMS imprinting) with chiral structures (nano-structures, 2PP) for lab-on-a-chip application
5: “Printed PCBs”
Goal: design, fabrication, and characterization of FDM printed resistive and capacitive elements using conductive filaments, with particular emphasis on understanding the relationship between geometry, print parameters, and electrical performance.
6: “Printed elements for energy harvester”
Goal: design, fabrication, and characterization of 3DP energy harvester structures that convert kinetic energy into usable electrical energy using FDM or SLA/DLP processes.
