The study demonstrates how combining high-resolution 2PP curing with stimuli-responsive molecular architectures can further the engineering of responsive microstructures and metamaterials.
Shape-memory resists capable of high-resolution curing into arbitrarily designed structures are increasingly demanded for soft robotics, optical sensors, microscale manufacturing, and biomedicine. Amorphous, shape-memory thiol-vinyl networks are printed using two-photon polymerization (2PP) curing of a simple resin formulated with commercially available reagents. The ability to print high-resolution feature sizes down to 200 nm is attributed to the use of radical-mediated, thiol-vinyl step-growth polymerization that quickly cross-links the resin, limiting diffusive transport. The thermomechanical behavior of the 2PP-cured material analyzed in compression, tension, and three-point bending is similar to the behavior of the UV-polymerized samples. To demonstrate the ability to design, field, and test 4D responsive microstructures, an array of nine springs with coil diameters of 330 mu m is printed. Following compressive shape-fixing, printed arrays can release 11 mu J of stored elastic strain energy when reheated. Further, a new concept of dichroic-memory of a metamaterial device is demonstrated by printing a twisted woodpile structure with circular dichroism as characterized by Mueller Matrix ellipsometry. The results of this study demonstrate how combining high-resolution 2PP curing with stimuli-responsive molecular architectures can further the engineering of responsive microstructures and metamaterials.
