2-Photon Polymerization Lithography System

NWO Institute AMOLF wishes to purchase a system for 2-Photon Polymerization Lithography (2-PPL) for micro 3D printing. It will serve as a part of our micro- and nanofabrication facility. This tool will expand the capabilities of the AMOLF NanoLab Amsterdam. 2PP is a method for the fabrication of highly precise microscale objects such as microlenses, microfluidic devices, and experimental optical structures. Due to its high precision and flexibility in the possible structures, it is a technique that can be applied in a number of different fields, such as nanophotonics, iophysics, and micromechanics. These are fields that require high level of control over the used structures in order to tune them to the needs of the researcher. The system will be used in a research cleanroom by a wide range of users with varying levels of experience, under the guidance of more experienced staff.
