3D printing or fabrication pursues the essential surface behavior manipulation of droplets or a liquid for rapidly and precisely constructing 3D multimaterial architectures. Further development of 3D fabrication desires a self-shaping strategy that can heterogeneously integrate functional materials with disparate electrical or optical properties. Here, a 3D liquid self-shaping strategy is reported for rapidly patterning materials over a series of compositions and accurately achieving micro-and nanoscale structures. The predesigned template selectively pins the droplet, and the surface energy minimization drives the self-shaping processing. The as-prepared 3D circuits assembled by silver nanoparticles carry a current of 208-448 mu A at 0.01 V impressed voltage, while the 3D architectures achieved by two different quantum dots show noninterfering optical properties with feature resolution below 3 mu m. This strategy can facilely fabricate micro-nanogeometric patterns without a modeling program, which will be of great significance for the development of 3D functional devices.
