nanoprinting
Tiny-scale printing technology
Nanoprinting is a manufacturing technique that creates structures at the nanometer scale—billionths of a meter.
The technology enables fabrication of components too small for conventional printing methods, with applications in electronics, medicine, and materials science.
Researchers use nanoprinting to produce circuits, drug delivery systems, and surfaces with precisely engineered properties: Nanoprinting could revolutionize how we manufacture microchips.
