Abstract: A particle is provided that includes a first material and a second material, arranged to provide a Fano resonance effect, for example in the visible portion of electromagnetic spectrum. The first and second materials may be substantially clear in the visible portion of the electromagnetic spectrum. The first material may include an inorganic material, such as SiO2, TiO2, HfO2, ZrO2, diamond, or a combination thereof. The second material may include a polymer. The first material has a first refractive index and the second material has a second refractive index, where the first refractive index and second refractive index have a difference of 0.5 or greater, and 1.0 or less. The first material may form a core and the second material may form a shell surrounding the core. Alternatively, the first and second materials may form a Janus particle, an asymmetric dimer, or an aggregate.

Abstract: An additive manufacturing device includes a stage configured to support a substrate. The device also includes a printhead disposed above the stage. The printhead is configured to heat a build material to a molten build material and to deposit the molten build material on the substrate in the form of droplets to fabricate an article. The device also includes a controlled heating and ablation system disposed proximal the printhead. The controlled heating and ablation system is configured to heat the substrate and ablate oxides on a surface of the substrate.

Abstract: A system and method of three-dimensional printing that includes heating a portion of a build surface by impinging multiple laser pulses onto the build surface in a time controlled pattern to provide a desired heated build surface prior to depositing a molten material onto the build surface. The time controlled pattern of laser pulses includes at least one heating period and at least one cooling period, and the time for the cooling period is determined by the cooling time of the build surface material, and the temperature differences between the original temperature of the build surface and the desired temperature of the build surface material.

Abstract: Techniques for laser-assisted additive manufacturing are disclosed. An example three-dimensional (3D) printer includes a platen having a surface to support a part during fabrication of the part. The 3D printer also includes an ejector head arranged above the surface of the platen. The ejector head is to eject build material toward the surface of the platen to fabricate the part. The 3D printer also includes a laser heating system to heat a target portion of the part during the fabrication of the part to improve a bond between the build material and the target portion of the part. The laser heating system includes a laser to output a laser beam that exhibits a non-gaussian beam profile.
