Two‐Photon Microbubble Printing: Asymmetric Assembly for Continuous Laser Writing

Small, EarlyView.
Two‐photon microbubble printing is reported that combines nonlinear photochemistry with thermally driven fluid dynamics. At the laser focus, a distorted vapor bubble induce a strong rear‐to‐front convective flow. By enabling asymmetric assembly, this method allows the continuous formation of nanoparticle aggregates from a wide variety of materials ...

Upconversion Photoluminescence to Monitor Local Heat Release During Femtosecond Direct Laser Writing of Bioinks In Situ

Small Methods, EarlyView.
Upconversion nanoparticle photoluminescence was used to quantify heat burden during femtosecond direct laser writing of bioinks in real time. Transient temperature spikes above 120–140°C demonstrate the need for a stringent process optimization, and fast 20 µm/s scan speeds were established to maintain physiological conditions.
