Additive Manufacturing of MicrosystEms (AMME)*
Abstract
*Previously part of Next Generation Microelectronics - Advanced Manufacturing Tools The Additive Manufacturing of MicrosystEms (AMME) program will revolutionize microsystem manufacturing by leveraging selective material synthesis and 3D patterning to enable a new class of microsystems. Additive Manufacturing (AM) has enabled complex single-material geometries that were previously impossible to produce via traditional manufacturing methods. However, microsystem manufacturing has not exploited AM due to fundamental limits of material quality, resolution, and print throughput. The AMME program will use selective material synthesis to create high-quality material precursors that permit simultaneous printing of conductors and insulators with high-resolution and high-volume throughput. Additionally, AMME will focus on commercialization of this technology such that the Department of Defense and intelligence community can quickly adopt the productized system to fabricate novel microsystems.
