Lapkričio 7 d. 14:00 VU Fizikos fakulteto Lazerinių tyrimų centro 306 auditorijoje vyks viešas mokslinis seminaras „From Light to Structural Architectures: Additive Manufacturing of Inorganic Materials at the Micro–Nano Scale“.
Seminarą ves dr. Arturo Susarrey-Arce iš Twente universiteto, Nyderlanduose. Seminaras vyks anglų kalba.
Santrauka:
3D printing, also known as additive manufacturing (AM), is revolutionizing the way we fabricate three-dimensional objects by depositing materials layer by layer according to digital designs. Unlike traditional subtractive techniques, AM offers distinct advantages such as minimized material waste, provides additional design freedom, and the ability to produce highly complex geometries.
This seminar will focus on AM of micro- and nanometric inorganic architectures—particularly glass and ceramics. Special attention will be given to two-photon lithography (TPL), a high-resolution technique that enables the fabrication of intricate three-dimensional architectures with sub-micrometer precision.
We will explore the morphological, structural, and chemical characteristics of these printed architectures, along with their optical functionalities. In particular, the incorporation of lanthanide dopants such as europium will be discussed as a route to achieve tunable luminescent properties.
In addition, the presentation will provide an overview of micro- and nanofabrication research at the University of Twente, highlighting examples such as fractal-inspired architectures for biology and functional designs for electrochemical systems.
Apie lektorių:
Arturo Susarrey-Arce received his B.Sc. in Chemistry and M.Sc. in Materials Sciences in Mexico. He earned his Ph.D. from the University of Twente, specializing in micro(nano)fabrication and microreactor technologies for electric field driven-catalysis. He conducted two postdoctoral research at the University of Liverpool (UK) and Chalmers University of Technology (SWE). He later became an Assistant Professor at the University of Twente. His research focuses on micro/nanofabrication and 3D-printing of glass and ceramics for optics and health, as well as structural (photo)electrocatalysis for environmental remediation and energy.
