Abstract

A new approach for microfluidics-based production of polymeric particles, namely two-photon continuous flow lithography, is reported. This technique takes advantage of two-photon lithography to create objects with sub-micrometer and 3D features, and overcomes the traditional process limitations of two-photon lithography by using multiple beam production under continuous flow. Polymeric fibers, helical and bow-tie particles with sub-diffraction resolution and surface roughness as low as 10 nm are demonstrated.
