Our paper on Low Cost Microfabrication Toolbox is now online
In the manuscript, we describe a number of low-cost microfabrication tools (below £1000), developed or adapted and implemented in our laboratories. We describe photolithography, micromilling, 3D printing, xurography and screen-printing tools used for the microfabrication of structural and functional materials with feature sizes ranging between 10 and 1000 microns.
Our paper aims to lower the entry barrier into the fascinating world of microfabrication, by putting simple, yet powerful tools in the hands of people who are likely to change the field tomorrow.
