SENSOR STRUCTURES AND METHODS OF FORMING USING THREE-DIMENSIONAL PRINTING TECHNIQUES

摘要

Three-dimensional printing techniques suitable for producing sensor structures, and sensor structures formed thereby. Such a sensor structure includes a support element coupled to a sensing element, and is formed by a three-dimensional printing technique that forms the support element and the sensing element as a single integral component by fusing particles fused together with a high energy beam.
