Abstract

The fabrication of integrated circuits by lithography technologies is a limited dimension 3D printing concept which can be expanded by building larger dimension structures in which mechanical-electromechanical and related device structures can be embedded. These involve hybrid, interconnected, layered, functional electronics along with power sources and other device structures fabricated by either some form of 3D printing or other novel placement.
