Formalizing Linear Motion G-code for Invariant Checking and Differential Testing of Fabrication Tools
The computational fabrication pipeline for 3D printing is much like a compiler - users design models in Computer Aided Design (CAD) tools that are lowered to polygon meshes to be ultimately compiled to machine code by 3D slicers. For traditional compilers and programming languages, techniques for checking program invariants are well-established. Similarly, methods like differential testing are often used to uncover bugs in compilers themselves, which makes them more reliable. The fabrication pi…

Ultra-high-resolution MRI maps brain fibers and cells with near-micron precision
A scientific team supported in part by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) has developed a new, ultra-high-resolution brain imaging system that can reconstruct microscopic brain structures that are disrupted in neurological and neuropsychiatric brain disorders. The new system is a significant advance over conventional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanners that cannot visualize these tiny but clinically important structures.

Autonomous Fabrication of Tailored Defect Structures in 2D Materials using Machine Learning-enabled Scanning Transmission Electron Microscopy
Materials with tailored quantum properties can be engineered from atomic scale assembly techniques, but existing methods often lack the agility and accuracy to precisely and intelligently control the manufacturing process. Here we demonstrate a fully autonomous approach for fabricating atomic-level defects using electron beams in scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) that combines advanced machine learning and automated beam control. As a proof of concept, we achieved controlled fabr…

5-axis Multi-material Desktop Additive Manufacturing of Conformal Antennas
This paper describes the novel use of low-cost, 5-axis, multi-material additive manufacturing to fabricate functional, complex conformal antennas. Using a customised open source 5-axis desktop printer incorporating conductive filaments, conformal S-band patch and Ultra-Wide Band antennas were fabricated and compared against planar-printed counterparts and electromagnetic simulations. Results show the potential of the approach for superior impedance matching, reduced fabrication time, and cost s…

High-quality Tungsten-doped Vanadium Dioxide Thin Films Fabricated in an Extremely Low-oxygen Furnace Environment
This work reports the fabrication and characterization of high-quality tungsten-doped vanadium dioxide (WxV1-xO2, x = 0~3 at. %) by thermal oxidation of sputtered tungsten-vanadium alloyed thin films with different atomic percentages and high-temperature annealing in an extremely low oxygen atmosphere (5 to 20 ppm) along with reduction of surface over-oxides in high vacuum (1 mPa). Oxidation parameters such as temperature, time and nitrogen purging rate are first optimized for obtaining high qu…
