Fabrication of Fibers With Complex Features Using Thermal Drawing of 3D‐Printed Preforms

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
3D printing enables rapid fabrication of macroscale polymer preforms with complex geometries. Thermal drawing then scales these structures into long fibers while preserving micron‐scale cross‐sectional features. This workflow provides a fast, low‐cost route to functional fibers with tailored geometries and material combinations for catheter, robotic ...

Spectral Condensing of All‐Dielectric Structural Colors via Cascaded Formation of Self‐Similar Beams

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Standalone low‐index microscale ridges (MRs) are promising platforms for all‐dielectric structural color generation. They are compact and easy to fabricate, but their color purity trails behind that of resonator‐ or periodic pattern‐based structural color pixels.
