Abstract
Bone implantation is one of the recognized and effective means of treating bone defects, but osteoporosis and bone tumor-related bone abnormalities have a series of problems such as susceptibility to infection, difficulty in healing, and poor therapeutic effect, which poses a great challenge to clinical medicine. Three-dimensional things may be printed using 3D printing. Researchers can feed materials through the printer layer by layer to create the desired shape for a 3D structure. It is widely employed in the healing of bone defects, and it is an improved form of additive manufacturing technology with prospective future applications. This review's objective is to provide an overview of the findings reports pertaining to 3D printing biopolymers in recent years, provide an overview of biopolymer materials and their composites with black phosphorus for 3D printing bone implants, and the characterization methods of composite materials are also summarized. In addition, summarizes 3D printing methods based on ink printing and laser printing, pointing out their special features and advantages, and provide a combination strategy of photothermal therapy and bone regeneration materials for black phosphorus-based materials. Finally, the associations between bone implant materials and immune cells, the bio-environment, as well as the 3D printing bone implants prospects are outlined.

Abstract
The development of direct fabrication routes with seamless integration of both the macro/micropatterning process and nanostructure synthesis is crucial for the commercial realization of cost-effective nanoscale sensor devices. This, if realized, can liberate us from the conventional limitations inherent in nanoscale device manufacturing. Specifically, such fabrication routes can, in principle, address the challenges such as the complexity, multistep nature, and substantial costs associated with existing technologies, which are not suitable for widespread market adoption in everyday-use devices. Herein, we propose a novel yet facile one-step fabrication approach that simultaneously accomplishes both patterning and nanostructure synthesis by employing low-power, cost-effective laser technology with a minimal environmental footprint. Versatile in nature, this approach can enable the incorporation of diverse functionalities spanning a broad spectrum of technologies, encompassing fields such as sensors, catalysts, photonics, energy storage, and biomedical monitoring devices. As a proof of concept, using our approach, we fabricated an ultra responsive, high-speed protonic sensing device for real-time respiratory monitoring. The enhanced temporal characteristics of our as-fabricated device, particularly in the relative humidity levels of interest in breath monitoring (typically over 55%), exhibited a superior response/recovery time in rapid humidity fluctuations. We envisage that the advantages brought by the presented fabrication approach can pave the way to establish a new method for inexpensive large-scale functional-material-based device fabrication.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Oral diseases, such as dental caries, periodontitis, and oral cancers, are highly prevalent worldwide. Many oral diseases are typically associated with bacterial infections or the proliferation of malignant cells, and they are usually located superficially. MATERIALS AND METHODS Articles were retrieved from PubMed/Medline, Web of Science. All studies focusing on stimuli-responsive materials in oral diseases were included and carefully evaluated. RESULTS Stimulus-responsive materials are innovative materials that selectively undergo structural changes and trigger drug release based on shifts at the molecular level, such as changes in pH, electric field, magnetic field, or light in the surrounding environment. These changes lead to alterations in the properties of the materials at the macro- or microscopic level. Consequently, stimuli-responsive materials are particularly suitable for treating superficial site diseases and have found extensive applications in antibacterial and anticancer therapies. These characteristics make them convenient and effective for addressing oral diseases. CONCLUSIONS This review aimed to summarize the classification, mechanism of action, and application of stimuli-responsive materials in the treatment of oral diseases, point out the existing limitations, and speculate the prospects for clinical applications. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Our findings may provide useful information of stimuli-responsive materials in oral diseases for dental clinicians.

Abstract
Biological materials and organisms possess the fundamental ability to self-organize, through which different components are assembled from the molecular level up to hierarchical structures with superior mechanical properties and multifunctionalities. These complex composites inspire material scientists to design new engineered materials by integrating multiple ingredients and structures over a wide range. Additive manufacturing, also known as 3D printing, has advantages with respect to fabricating multiscale and multi-material structures. The need for multifunctional materials is driving 3D printing techniques toward arbitrary 3D architectures with the next level of complexity. In this paper, the aim is to highlight key features of those 3D printing techniques that can produce either multiscale or multimaterial structures, including innovations in printing methods, materials processing approaches, and hardware improvements. Several issues and challenges related to current methods are discussed. Ultimately, the authors also provide their perspective on how to realize the combination of multiscale and multimaterial capabilities in 3D printing processes and future directions based on emerging research.

Abstract
Hydrogel-based flexible electronic devices serve as a next-generation bridge for human-machine interaction and find extensive applications in clinical therapy, military equipment, and wearable devices. However, the mechanical mismatch between hydrogels and human tissues, coupled with the failure of conformal interfaces, hinders the transmission of information between living organisms and flexible devices, which resulted in the instability and low fidelity of signals, especially in the acquisition of electromyographic (EMG) and electrocardiographic (ECG) signals. In this study, we designed an ion-conductive hydrogel (ICHgel) utilizing multiple physical interactions, successfully applied for human motion monitoring and the collection of epidermal physiological signals. By incorporating fumed silica (F-SiO2) nanoparticles and calcium chloride into an interpenetrating network (IPN) composed of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and polyacrylamide (AAm)/acrylic acid (AA) chains, the ICHgel exhibited exceptional tunable stretchability (>1450% strain) and conductivity (10.58 ± 0.85 S m-1). Additionally, the outstanding adhesion of the ICHgel proved to be a critical factor for effective communication between epidermal tissues and flexible devices. Demonstrating its capability to acquire stable electromechanical signals, the ICHgel was attached to different parts of the human body. More importantly, as a flexible electrode, the ICHgel outperformed commercial Ag/AgCl electrodes in the collection of ECG and EMG signals. In summary, the synthesized ICHgel with its outstanding conformal interface capabilities and mechanical adaptability paves the way for enhanced human-machine interaction, fostering the development of flexible electronic devices.

Abstract
Nanoparticles form long-range micropatterns via self-assembly or directed self-assembly with superior mechanical, electrical, optical, magnetic, chemical, and other functional properties for broad applications, such as structural supports, thermal exchangers, optoelectronics, microelectronics, and robotics. The precisely defined particle assembly at the nanoscale with simultaneously scalable patterning at the microscale is indispensable for enabling functionality and improving the performance of devices. This article provides a comprehensive review of nanoparticle assembly formed primarily via the balance of forces at the nanoscale (e.g., van der Waals, colloidal, capillary, convection, and chemical forces) and nanoparticle-template interactions (e.g., physical confinement, chemical functionalization, additive layer-upon-layer). The review commences with a general overview of nanoparticle self-assembly, with the state-of-the-art literature review and motivation. It subsequently reviews the recent progress in nanoparticle assembly without the presence of surface templates. Manufacturing techniques for surface template fabrication and their influence on nanoparticle assembly efficiency and effectiveness are then explored. The primary focus is the spatial organization and orientational preference of nanoparticles on non-templated and pre-templated surfaces in a controlled manner. Moreover, the article discusses broad applications of micropatterned surfaces, encompassing various fields. Finally, the review concludes with a summary of manufacturing methods, their limitations, and future trends in nanoparticle assembly.

Abstract
Direct optical printing of functional inorganics shows tremendous potential as it enables the creation of intricate two-dimensional (2D) patterns and affordable design and production of various devices. Although there have been recent advancements in printing processes using short-wavelength light or pulsed lasers, the precise control of the vertical thickness in printed 3D structures has received little attention. This control is vital to the diverse functionalities of inorganic thin films and their devices, as they rely heavily on their thicknesses. This lack of research is attributed to the technical intricacy and complexity involved in the lithographic processes. Herein, we present a generalized optical 3D printing process for inorganic nanoparticles using maskless digital light processing. We develop a range of photocurable inorganic nanoparticle inks encompassing metals, semiconductors, and oxides, combined with photolinkable ligands and photoacid generators, enabling the direct solidification of nanoparticles in the ink medium. Our process creates complex and large-area patterns with a vertical resolution of ∼50 nm, producing 50-nm-thick 2D films and several micrometer-thick 3D architectures with no layer height difference via layer-by-layer deposition. Through fabrication and operation of multilayered switching devices with Au electrodes and Ag-organic resistive layers, the feasibility of our process for cost-effective manufacturing of multilayered devices is demonstrated.

Abstract
The ability to govern particle assembly in an evaporative-driven additive manufacturing (AM) can realize multi-scale features fundamental to creating printed electronics. However, existing techniques remain challenging and often require templates or contaminating solutes. We explore the control of particle deposition in 3D-printed colloids by diffusiophoresis, a previously unexplored mechanism in multi-scale AM. Diffusiophoresis can introduce spontaneous phoretic particle motion by establishing local solute concentration gradients. We show that diffusiophoresis can play a dominant role in complex evaporative-driven particle assembly, enabling a fundamentally new and versatile control of particle deposition in a multi-scale AM process.

Abstract
The use of biobased materials in additive manufacturing is a promising long-term strategy for advancing the polymer industry toward a circular economy and reducing the environmental impact. In commercial 3D printing formulations, there is still a scarcity of efficient biobased polymer resins. This research proposes vegetable oils as biobased components to formulate the stereolithography (SLA) resin. Application of nanocellulose filler, prepared from agricultural waste, remarkably improves the printed material's performance properties. The strong bonding of nanofibrillated celluloses' (NFCs') matrix helps develop a strong interface and produce a polymer nanocomposite with enhanced thermal properties and dynamical mechanical characteristics. The ultra-low NFC content of 0.1-1.0 wt% (0.07-0.71 vol%) was examined in printed samples, with the lowest concentration yielding some of the most promising results. The developed SLA resins showed good printability, and the printing accuracy was not decreased by adding NFC. At the same time, an increase in the resin viscosity with higher filler loading was observed. Resins maintained high transparency in the 500-700 nm spectral region. The glass transition temperature for the 0.71 vol% composition increased by 28°C when compared to the nonreinforced composition. The nanocomposite's stiffness has increased fivefold for the 0.71 vol% composition. The thermal stability of printed compositions was retained after cellulose incorporation, and thermal conductivity was increased by 11%. Strong interfacial interactions were observed between the cellulose and the polymer in the form of hydrogen bonding between hydroxyl and ester groups, which were confirmed by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy. This research demonstrates a great potential to use acrylated vegetable oils and nanocellulose fillers as a feedstock to produce high-performance resins for sustainable SLA 3D printing.

Abstract
Aliphatic polycarbonates (aPCs) have become increasingly popular as functional materials due to their biocompatibility and capacity for on-demand degradation. Advances in polymerization techniques and the introduction of new functional monomers have expanded the library of aPCs available, offering a diverse range of chemical compositions and structures. To accommodate the emerging requirements of new applications in biomedical and energy-related fields, various manufacturing techniques have been adopted for processing aPC-based materials. However, a summary of these techniques has yet to be conducted. The aim of this paper is to enrich the toolbox available to researchers, enabling them to select the most suitable technique for their materials. In this paper, a concise review of the recent progress in processing techniques, including controlled self-assembly, electrospinning, additive manufacturing, and other techniques, is presented. We also highlight the specific challenges and opportunities for the sustainable growth of this research area and the successful integration of aPCs in industrial applications.

Abstract
Dynamic tracking of cell migration during tissue regeneration remains challenging owing to imaging techniques that require sophisticated devices, are often lethal to healthy tissues. Herein, we developed a 3D printable non-invasive polymeric hydrogel based on 2,2,6,6-(tetramethylpiperidin-1-yl) oxyl (TEMPO)-oxidized nanocellulose (T-CNCs) and carbon dots (CDs) for the dynamic tracking of cells. The as-prepared T-CNC@CDs were used to fabricate a liquid bio-resin containing gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) and polyethylene glycol diacrylate (GPCD) for digital light processing (DLP) bioprinting. The shear-thinning properties of the GPCD bio-resin were further improved by the addition of T-CNC@CDs, allowing high-resolution 3D printing and bioprinting of human cells with higher cytocompatibility (viability ∼95 %). The elastic modulus of the printed GPCD hydrogel was found to be ∼13 ± 4.2 kPa, which is ideal for soft tissue engineering. The as-fabricated hydrogel scaffold exhibited tunable structural color property owing to the addition of T-CNC@CDs. Owing to the unique fluorescent property of T-CNC@CDs, the human skin cells could be tracked within the GPCD hydrogel up to 30 days post-printing. Therefore, we anticipate that GPCD bio-resin can be used for 3D bioprinting with high structural stability, dynamic tractability, and tunable mechanical stiffness for image-guided tissue regeneration.

Abstract
When using magnetopolymer composites in high-precision industrial and biomedical technologies, the problem of predicting their properties in an external magnetic field arises. In this work, we study theoretically the influence of the polydispersity of a magnetic filler on a composite's equilibrium magnetization and on the orientational texturing of magnetic particles formed during polymerization. The results are obtained using rigorous methods of statistical mechanics and Monte Carlo computer simulations in the framework the bidisperse approximation. It is shown that by adjusting the dispersione composition of the magnetic filler and the intensity of the magnetic field at which the sample's polymerization occurs, it is possible to control the composite's structure and magnetization. The derived analytical expressions determine these regularities. The developed theory takes into account dipole-dipole interparticle interactions and therefore can be applied to predict the properties of concentrated composites. The obtained results are a theoretical basis for the synthesis of magnetopolymer composites with a predetermined structure and magnetic properties.

Abstract
Significant challenges remain in designing sufficient viscoelasticity polysaccharide-based high internal phase Pickering emulsions (HIPPEs) as soft materials for 3D printing. Herein, taking advantage of the interfacial covalent bond interaction between modified alginate (Ugi-OA) dissolved in the aqueous phase and aminated silica nanoparticles (ASNs) dispersed in oil, HIPPEs with printability were obtained. Using multitechniques coupling a conventional rheometer with a quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring, the correlation between interfacial recognition coassembly on the molecular scale and the stability of whole bulk HIPPEs on the macroscopic scale can be clarified. The results showed that Ugi-OA/ASNs assemblies (NPSs) were strongly retargeted into the oil-water interface due to the specific Schiff base-binding between ASNs and Ugi-OA, further forming thicker and more rigid interfacial films on the microscopic scale compared with that of the Ugi-OA/SNs (bared silica nanoparticles) system. Meanwhile, flexible polysaccharides also formed a 3D network that suppressed the motion of the droplets and particles in the continuous phase, endowing the emulsion with appropriately viscoelasticity to manufacture a sophisticated "snowflake" architecture. In addition, this study opens a novel pathway for the construction of structured all-liquid systems by introducing an interfacial covalent recognition-mediated coassembly strategy, showing promising applications.

Abstract
A large variety of printing, deposition and writing techniques have been incorporated to fabricate electronic devices in the last decades. This approach, printed electronics, has gained great interest in research and practical applications and is successfully fuelling the growth in materials science and technology. On the other hand, a new player is emerging, additive manufacturing, called 3D printing, introducing a new capability to create geometrically complex constructs with low cost and minimal material waste. Having such tremendous technology in our hands, it was just a matter of time to combine advances of printed electronics technology for the fabrication of unique 3D structural electronics. Nanomaterial patterning with additive manufacturing techniques can enable harnessing their nanoscale properties and the fabrication of active structures with unique electrical, mechanical, optical, thermal, magnetic and biological properties. In this paper, we will briefly review the properties of selected nanomaterials suitable for electronic applications and look closer at the current achievements in the synergistic integration of nanomaterials with additive manufacturing technologies to fabricate 3D printed structural electronics. The focus is fixed strictly on techniques allowing as much as possible fabrication of spatial 3D objects, or at least conformal ones on 3D printed substrates, while only selected techniques are adaptable for 3D printing of electronics. Advances in the fabrication of conductive paths and circuits, passive components, antennas, active and photonic components, energy devices, microelectromechanical systems and sensors are presented. Finally, perspectives for development with new nanomaterials, multimaterial and hybrid techniques, bioelectronics, integration with discrete components and 4D-printing are briefly discussed.

Abstract
Graphene is an important nanocarbon nanofiller for polymeric matrices. The polymer–graphene nanocomposites, obtained through facile fabrication methods, possess significant electrical–thermal–mechanical and physical properties for technical purposes. To overcome challenges of polymer–graphene nanocomposite processing and high performance, advanced fabrication strategies have been applied to design the next-generation materials–devices. This revolutionary review basically offers a fundamental sketch of graphene, polymer–graphene nanocomposite and three-dimensional (3D) and four-dimensional (4D) printing techniques. The main focus of the article is to portray the impact of 3D and 4D printing techniques in the field of polymer–graphene nanocomposites. Polymeric matrices, such as polyamide, polycaprolactone, polyethylene, poly(lactic acid), etc. with graphene, have been processed using 3D or 4D printing technologies. The 3D and 4D printing employ various cutting-edge processes and offer engineering opportunities to meet the manufacturing demands of the nanomaterials. The 3D printing methods used for graphene nanocomposites include direct ink writing, selective laser sintering, stereolithography, fused deposition modeling and other approaches. Thermally stable poly(lactic acid)–graphene oxide nanocomposites have been processed using a direct ink printing technique. The 3D-printed poly(methyl methacrylate)–graphene have been printed using stereolithography and additive manufacturing techniques. The printed poly(methyl methacrylate)–graphene nanocomposites revealed enhanced morphological, mechanical and biological properties. The polyethylene–graphene nanocomposites processed by fused diffusion modeling have superior thermal conductivity, strength, modulus and radiation- shielding features. The poly(lactic acid)–graphene nanocomposites have been processed using a number of 3D printing approaches, including fused deposition modeling, stereolithography, etc., resulting in unique honeycomb morphology, high surface temperature, surface resistivity, glass transition temperature and linear thermal coefficient. The 4D printing has been applied on acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene, poly(lactic acid) and thermosetting matrices with graphene nanofiller. Stereolithography-based 4D-printed polymer–graphene nanomaterials have revealed complex shape-changing nanostructures having high resolution. These materials have high temperature stability and high performance for technical applications. Consequently, the 3D- or 4D-printed polymer–graphene nanocomposites revealed technical applications in high temperature relevance, photovoltaics, sensing, energy storage and other technical fields. In short, this paper has reviewed the background of 3D and 4D printing, graphene-based nanocomposite fabrication using 3D–4D printing, development in printing technologies and applications of 3D–4D printing.

Abstract
Human bones can suffer from various injuries, such as fractures, bone cancer, among others, which has initiated research activities towards bone replacement using advanced bio-materials. However, it is still challenging to design bio-scaffolds with bone-inducing agents to regenerate bone defects. In this regard, MAX-phases and MXenes (early transition metal carbides and/or nitrides) have gained notable attention due to their unique hydrophilicity, bio-compatibility, chemical stability, and photothermal properties. They can be used in bone tissue engineering as a suitable replacement or reinforcement for common bio-materials (polymers, bio-glasses, metals, or hydroxyapatite). To fabricate bio-scaffolds, additive manufacturing is prospective due to the possibility of controlling porosity and creating complex shapes with high resolution. Until now, no comprehensive article summarizing the existing state-of-the-art related to bone scaffolds reinforced by MAX-phases and MXenes fabricated by additive manufacturing has been published. Therefore, our article addresses the reasons for using bone scaffolds and the importance of choosing the most suitable material. We critically discuss the recent developments in bone tissue engineering and regenerative medicine using MAX-phases and MXenes with a particular emphasis on manufacturing, mechanical properties, and bio-compatibility. Finally, we discuss the existing challenges and bottlenecks of bio-scaffolds reinforced by MAX-phases and MXenes before deriving their future potential.

Abstract
In this paper, the dynamic magnetic properties of an ensemble of interacting immobilized magnetic nanoparticles with aligned easy axes in an applied ac magnetic field directed perpendicular to the easy axes are considered. The system models soft, magnetically sensitive composites synthesized from liquid dispersions of the magnetic nanoparticles in a strong static magnetic field, followed by the carrier liquid's polymerization. After polymerization, the nanoparticles lose translational degrees of freedom; they react to an ac magnetic field via Néel rotation, when the particle's magnetic moment deviates from the easy axis inside the particle body. Based on a numerical solution of the Fokker-Planck equation for the probability density of the magnetic moment orientation, the dynamic magnetization, frequency-dependent susceptibility, and relaxation times of the particle's magnetic moments are determined. It is shown that the system's magnetic response is formed under the influence of competing interactions, such as dipole-dipole, field-dipole, and dipole-easy-axis interactions. The contribution of each interaction to the magnetic nanoparticle's dynamic response is analyzed. The obtained results provide a theoretical basis for predicting the properties of soft, magnetically sensitive composites, which are increasingly used in high-tech industrial and biomedical technologies.

Abstract
Although the evolution of tooth structure seems highly conserved, remarkable diversity exists among species due to different living environments and survival requirements. Along with the conservation, this diversity of evolution allows for the optimized structures and functions of teeth under various service conditions, providing valuable resources for the rational design of biomimetic materials. In this review, we survey the current knowledge about teeth from representative mammals and aquatic animals, including human teeth, herbivore and carnivore teeth, shark teeth, calcite teeth in sea urchins, magnetite teeth in chitons, and transparent teeth in dragonfish, to name a few. The highlight of tooth diversity in terms of compositions, structures, properties, and functions may stimulate further efforts in the synthesis of tooth-inspired materials with enhanced mechanical performance and broader property sets. The state-of-the-art syntheses of enamel mimetics and their properties are briefly covered. We envision that future development in this field will need to take the advantage of both conservation and diversity of teeth. Our own view on the opportunities and key challenges in this pathway is presented with a focus on the hierarchical and gradient structures, multifunctional design, and precise and scalable synthesis.

Abstract
3D printing is a manufacturing technique in constant evolution. Day by day, new materials and methods are discovered, making 3D printing continually develop. 3D printers are also evolving, giving us objects with better resolution, faster, and in mass production. One of the areas in 3D printing that has excellent potential is 4D printing. It is a technique involving materials that can react to an environmental stimulus (pH, heat, magnetism, humidity, electricity, and light), causing an alteration in their physical or chemical state and performing another function. Lately, 3D/4D printing has been increasingly used for fabricating materials aiming at drug delivery, scaffolds, bioinks, tissue engineering (soft and hard), synthetic organs, and even printed cells. The majority of the materials used in 3D printing are polymeric. These materials can be of natural origin or synthetic ones of different architectures and combinations. The use of block copolymers can combine the exemplary properties of both blocks to have better mechanics, processability, biocompatibility, and possible stimulus behavior via tunable structures. This review has gathered fundamental aspects of 3D/4D printing for biomaterials, and it shows the advances and applications of block copolymers in the field of biomaterials over the last years.

Abstract
The repair of severe bone defects is still a formidable clinical challenge, requiring the implantation of bone grafts or bone substitute materials. The development of three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting has received considerable attention in bone tissue engineering over the past decade. However, 3D printing has a limitation. It only takes into account the original form of the printed scaffold, which is inanimate and static, and is not suitable for dynamic organisms. With the emergence of stimuli-responsive materials, four-dimensional (4D) printing has become the next-generation solution for biological tissue engineering. It combines the concept of time with three-dimensional printing. Over time, 4D-printed scaffolds change their appearance or function in response to environmental stimuli (physical, chemical, and biological). In conclusion, 4D printing is the change of the fourth dimension (time) in 3D printing, which provides unprecedented potential for bone tissue repair. In this review, we will discuss the latest research on shape memory materials and 4D printing in bone tissue repair.

Abstract
Homeostasis is the most fundamental mechanism of physiological processes, occurring simultaneously as the production and outcomes of pathological procedures. Accompanied by manufacture and maturation of intricate and highly hierarchical architecture obtained from 3D bioprinting (three-dimension bioprinting), homeostasis has substantially determined the quality of printed tissues and organs. Instead of only shape imitation that has been the remarkable advances, fabrication for functionality to make artificial tissues and organs that act as real ones in vivo has been accepted as the optimized strategy in 3D bioprinting for the next several years. Herein, this review aims to provide not only an overview of 3D bioprinting, but also the main strategies used for homeostasis bioprinting. This paper briefly introduces the principles of 3D bioprinting system applied in homeostasis regulations firstly, and then summarizes the specific strategies and potential trend of homeostasis regulations using multiple types of stimuli-response biomaterials to maintain auto regulation, specifically displaying a brilliant prospect in hormone regulation of homeostasis with the most recently outbreak of vasculature fabrication. Finally, we discuss challenges and future prospects of homeostasis fabrication based on 3D bioprinting in regenerative medicine, hoping to further inspire the development of functional fabrication in 3D bioprinting.

Abstract
Vat-photopolymerization-based 3D printing enables on-demand construction of customized objects with scalable production capacity and high precision. Herein, the sol-gel process for aerogels with digital light processing 3D printing to produce advanced functional materials possessing hierarchical pore structures and complex shapes is combined. It has revealed the temporal evolution of the photorheological behavior of acrylate-modified silica sols in an acid-base catalytic procedure, and confirmed that silica aerogels can be fabricated with very low acrylate content. The resulting aerogels are thermostable with intrinsic silica contents, skeletal densities, and physical characteristics similar to those of commercial silica aerogels yet distinct mechanical behaviors. More importantly, the printed silica aerogels can be used as a versatile nanoengineering platform to produce high-performance and multifunctional interpenetrating phase nanocomposites with complex shapes through programmable post-printing processes. Epoxy-based nanocomposites possessing excellent mechanical performance, ionogel-based conductive nanocomposites with decoupled electrical and mechanical properties, and anti-swelling hydrogel-based nanocomposites are demonstrated. The results of this study offer new guidelines for the design and fabrication of novel materials by additive manufacturing.

Abstract
The integration of an ingestible dosage form with sensing, actuation, and drug delivery capabilities can enable a broad range of surgical-free diagnostic and treatment strategies. However, the gastrointestinal (GI) tract is a highly constrained and complex luminal construct that fundamentally limits the size of an ingestible system. Recent advancements in mesoscale magnetic crawlers have demonstrated the ability to effectively traverse complex and confined systems by leveraging magnetic fields to induce contraction and bending-based locomotion. However, the integration of functional components (e.g., electronics) in the proposed ingestible system remains fundamentally challenging. Herein, the creation of a centralized compartment in a magnetic robot by imparting localized flexibility (MR-LF) is demonstrated. The centralized compartment enables MR-LF to be readily integrated with modular functional components and payloads, such as commercial off-the-shelf electronics and medication, while preserving its bidirectionality in an ingestible form factor. The ability of MR-LF to incorporate electronics, perform drug delivery, guide continuum devices such as catheters, and navigate air-water environments in confined lumens is demonstrated. The MR-LF enables functional integration to create a highly-integrated ingestible system that can ultimately address a broad range of unmet clinical needs.

Abstract
3D printing has rapidly become a critical enabling technology in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine for the fabrication of complex engineered tissues. 3D bioprinting, in particular, has advanced greatly to facilitate the incorporation of a broad spectrum of biomaterials along with cells and biomolecules of interest forin vitrotissue generation. The increasing complexity of novel bioink formulations and application-dependent printing conditions poses a significant challenge for replicating or innovating new bioprinting strategies. As the field continues to grow, it is imperative to establish a cohesive, open-source database that enables users to search through existing 3D printing formulations rapidly and efficiently. Through the efforts of the NIH/NIBIB Center for Engineering Complex Tissues, we have developed, to our knowledge, the first bioink database for extrusion-based 3D printing. The database is publicly available and allows users to search through and easily access information on biomaterials and cells specifically used in 3D printing. In order to enable a community-driven database growth, we have established an open-source portal for researchers to enter their publication information for addition into the database. Although the database has a broad range of capabilities, we demonstrate its utility by performing a comprehensive analysis of the printability domains of two well-established biomaterials in the printing world, namely poly(ϵ-caprolactone) and gelatin methacrylate. The database allowed us to rapidly identify combinations of extrusion pressure, temperature, and speed that have been used to print these biomaterials and more importantly, identify domains within which printing was not possible. The data also enabled correlation analysis between all the printing parameters, including needle size and type, that exhibited compatibility for cell-based 3D printing. Overall, this database is an extremely useful tool for the 3D printing and bioprinting community to advance their research and is an important step towards standardization in the field.

Abstract
Additive manufacturing, also known as 3D printing (3DP), is a novel and developing technology, which has a wide range of industrial and scientific applications. This technology has continuously progressed over the past several decades, with improvement in productivity, resolution of the printed features, achievement of more and more complex shapes and topographies, scalability of the printed components and devices, and discovery of new printing materials with multi-functional capabilities. Among these newly developed printing materials, carbon-nanotubes (CNT) based inks, with their remarkable mechanical, electrical, and thermal properties, have emerged as an extremely attractive option. Various formulae of CNT-based ink have been developed, including CNT-nano-particle inks, CNT-polymer inks, and CNT-based non-nanocomposite inks (i.e., CNT ink that is not in a form where CNT particles are suspended in a polymer matrix). Various types of sensors as well as soft and smart electronic devices with a multitude of applications have been fabricated with CNT-based inks by employing different 3DP methods including syringe printing (SP), aerosol-jet printing (AJP), fused deposition modeling (FDM), and stereolithography (SLA). Despite such progress, there is inadequate literature on the various fluid mechanics and colloidal science aspects associated with the printability and property-tunability of nanoparticulate inks, specifically CNT-based inks. This review article, therefore, will focus on the formulation, dispersion, and the associated fluid mechanics and the colloidal science of 3D printable CNT-based inks. This article will first focus on the different examples where 3DP has been employed for printing CNT-based inks for a multitude of applications. Following that, we shall highlight the various key fluid mechanics and colloidal science issues that are central and vital to printing with such inks. Finally, the article will point out the open existing challenges and scope of future work on this topic.

Abstract
With the demand for integrated nanodevices, anisotropic conductive films are one type of interconnection structure for electronic components, which have been widely used for improving the integration of the system in printed circuit boards. This work presents a template-assisted printing strategy for the fabrication of nanoparticle-based networks with multi electrical properties. By manipulating the microfluid behavior under the guidance of the grid-shaped template, the continuity of liquid bridges can be precisely controlled in two directions. The isotropous circuits with crossbar paths, discrete paths as well as unidirectional paths are obtained, which achieve the switching of on/off states in the circuits. This work demonstrates a new type of directional circuits by the template-assisted printing method, which provides an effective fabrication strategy for electrical components and integrated systems.

Abstract
Controlling the flow of broadband electromagnetic energy at the nanoscale remains a critical challenge in optoelectronics. Surface plasmon polaritons (or plasmons) provide subwavelength localization of light but are affected by significant losses. On the contrary, dielectrics lack a sufficiently robust response in the visible to trap photons similar to metallic structures. Overcoming these limitations appears elusive. Here we demonstrate that addressing this problem is possible if we employ a novel approach based on suitably deformed reflective metaphotonic structures. The complex geometrical shape engineered in these reflectors emulates nondispersive index responses, which can be inverse-designed following arbitrary form factors. We discuss the realization of essential components such as resonators with an ultrahigh refractive index of n = 100 in diverse profiles. These structures support the localization of light in the form of bound states in the continuum (BIC), fully localized in air, in a platform in which all refractive index regions are physically accessible. We discuss our approach to sensing applications, designing a class of sensors where the analyte directly contacts areas of ultrahigh refractive index. Leveraging this feature, we report an optical sensor with sensitivity two times higher than the closest competitor with a similar micrometer footprint. Inversely designed reflective metaphotonics offers a flexible technology for controlling broadband light, supporting optoelectronics' integration with large bandwidths in circuitry with miniaturized footprints.

Abstract
Bioengineered scaffolds satisfying both the physiological and anatomical considerations could potentially repair partially damaged tissues to whole organs. Although three-dimensional (3D) printing has become a popular approach in making 3D topographic scaffolds, electrospinning stands out from all other techniques for fabricating extracellular matrix mimicking fibrous scaffolds. However, its complex charge-influenced jet-field interactions and the associated random motion were hardly overcome for almost a century, thus preventing it from being a viable technique for 3D topographic scaffold construction. Herein, we constructed, for the first time, geometrically challenging 3D fibrous scaffolds using biodegradable poly(ε-caprolactone), mimicking human-organ-scale face, female breast, nipple, and vascular graft, with exceptional shape memory and free-standing features by a novel field self-searching process of autopilot polymer jet, essentially resembling the silkworm-like cocoon spinning. With a simple electrospinning setup and innovative writing strategies supported by simulation, we successfully overcame the intricate jet-field interactions while preserving high-fidelity template topographies, via excellent target recognition, with pattern features ranging from 100's μm to 10's cm. A 3D cell culture study ensured the anatomical compatibility of the so-made 3D scaffolds. Our approach brings the century-old electrospinning to the new list of viable 3D scaffold constructing techniques, which goes beyond applications in tissue engineering.

Abstract
Microfluidic paper-based analytical devices (μPADs) are emerging as powerful analytical platforms in clinical diagnostics, food safety, and environmental protection because of their low cost and favorable substrate properties for biosensing. However, the existing top-down fabrication methods of paper-based chips suffer from low resolution (>200 μm). Additionally, papers have limitations in their physical properties (e.g., thickness, transmittance, and mechanical flexibility). Here, we demonstrate a bottom-up approach for the rapid fabrication of heterogeneously controlled paper-based chip arrays. We simply print a wax-patterned microchip with wettability contrasts, enabling automatic and selective assembly of cellulose microfibers to construct predefined paper-based microchip arrays with controllable thickness. This paper-based microchip printing technology is feasible for various substrate materials ranging from inorganic glass to organic polymers, providing a versatile platform for the full range of applications including transparent devices and flexible health monitoring. Our bottom-up printing technology using cellulose microfibers as the starting material provides a lateral resolution down to 42 ± 3 μm and achieves the narrowest channel barrier down to 33 ± 2 μm. As a proof-of-concept demonstration, a flexible paper-based glucose monitor is built for human health care, requiring only 0.3 μL of sample for testing.

Abstract
Stretchable conductive electrodes that can be made by printing technology with high resolution is desired for preparing wearable electronics. Printable inks composed of liquid metals are ideal candidates for these applications, but their practical applications are limited by their low stability, poor printability, and low conductivity. Here, thixotropic metal-in-water (M/W) emulsion gels (MWEGs) were designed and developed by stabilizing and bridging liquid metal droplets (LMDs) via a host-guest polymer. In the MWEGs, the hydrophilic main chain of the host-guest polymers emulsified and stabilized LMDs via coordination bonds. The grafted cyclodextrin and adamantane groups formed dynamic inclusion complexes to bridge two neighboring LMDs, leading to the formation of a dynamically cross-linked network of LMDs in the aqueous phase. The MWEGs exhibited viscoelastic and shear-thinning behavior, making them ideal for direct three-dimensional (3D) and screen printing with a high resolution (∼65 μm) to assemble complex patterns consisting of ∼95 wt % liquid metal. When stretching the printed patterns, strong host-guest interactions guaranteed that the entire droplet network was cross-linked, while the brittle oxide shell of the droplets ruptured, releasing the liquid metal core and allowing it to fuse into continuous conductive pathways under an ultralow critical strain (<1.5%). This strain-activated conductivity exceeded 15800 S/cm under a large strain of 800% and exhibited long-term cyclic stability and robustness.

Abstract
Multilevel porous architectures with microscopic shape control and tailor-made complex structures offer great potential for various innovative applications, but their elaborate design and synthesis have remained a scientific and technological challenge. Herein, we report a simple and effective tri-templating method, in which microscale Pickering droplets, nanoscale polystyrene colloids (PS), and molecular cetyltrimethylammonium chloride micelles are synchronously employed, for the fabrication of such micro-nanohierarchical mesoporous silica microspheres. In this protocol, Pickering droplet-directed interfacial sol-gel growth and its spatially confined surfactant assembly-directed sol-gel coating on PS suspensions are coupled together, enabling the successful formation of structured mesoporous silica that consists of numerous nanocompartments enclosed by a permeable shell. By varying the quantity of PS colloidal templates, rational regulation of the complex interior structure is achieved. Also, ascribed to the multilevel arrangement, this peculiar architecture not only shows desirable fast mass transport of external molecules but also possesses easy handling ability. After loading with tetraethylenepentamine or enzyme species, the yielded microspherical CO2 sorbents or immobilized biocatalysts, respectively, exhibit enhanced CO2 capture capacity and enzymatic catalysis efficiency. Notably, taking advantage of their microscopic characteristics, the immobilized biocatalysts could be ideally packed in a fixed-bed reactor for long-term continuous-flow enzymatic reactions. This tri-templating strategy provides a new synthetic route to access other multilevel microscopic materials with fascinating complex structures and paves a way to promote their practical applications.

Abstract
This work is devoted to the theoretical study of the structural and magnetic properties of an ensemble of single-domain interacting magnetic nanoparticles immobilized in a non-magnetic medium. This model is typical for describing magnetically active soft materials, "smart" polymer ferrocomposites, which have been applied in science-intensive industrial and biomedical technologies. It is assumed that the ferrocomposite is obtained by solidification of the carrier medium in a ferrofluid under an external magnetic field, the intensity of which is determined by the Langevin parameter αp; after the solidification of the carrier liquid, the nanoparticles retain the spatial distribution and orientation of their easy magnetization axes. The features of the orientational texture formed in the sample are analyzed depending on the intensity of the magnetic field αp and interparticle dipole-dipole interactions. The magnetization of a textured ferrocomposite in the magnetic field α is also investigated. Our results show that in the case of a co-directional arrangement of the considered fields and if α < αp, the ferrocomposites are magnetized much more efficiently than ferrofluids due to their texture. In the fields α > αp, the ferrocomposite is magnetized less efficiently than the ferrofluid due to the internal magnetic anisotropy of the nanoparticles. The analytical expressions presented here make it possible to predict the magnetization of a ferrocomposite depending on its internal structure and synthesis conditions, which is the theoretical basis for the synthesis of ferrocomposites with a predetermined magnetic response in a given magnetic field.

Abstract
We present the fabrication of three-dimensional inlets with gradually decreasing widths and depths and with nanopillars on the slope, all defined in just one lithography step. In addition, as an application, we show how these micro- and nanostructures can be used for micro- and nanofluidics and lab-on-a-chip devices to facilitate the flow and analyze single molecules of DNA. For the fabrication of 3D inlets in a single layer process, dose-modulated electron beam lithography was used, producing depths between 750 nm and 50 nm along a 30 μm long inlet, which is additionally structured with nanometer-scale pillars randomly distributed on top, as a result of incomplete exposure and underdevelopment of the resist. The fabrication conditions affect the slope of the inlet, the nanopillar density and coverage. The key parameters are the dose used for the electron beam exposure and the development conditions, like the developer's dilution, stirring and development time. The 3D inlets with nanostructured pillars were integrated into fluidic devices, acting as a transition between micro and nanofluidic structures for pre-stretching and unfolding DNA molecules, avoiding the intrusion of folded molecules and clogging the analysis channel. After patterning these structures in silicon, they can be replicated in polymer by UV nanoimprinting. We show here how the inlets with pillars slow down the molecules before they enter the nanochannels, resulting in a 3-fold decrease in speed, which would translate to an improvement in the resolution for DNA optical mapping.

Abstract
Polarized hydroxyapatite (HAp) scaffolds with customized architecture at the nanoscale have been presented as a green alternative to conventional catalysts used for carbon and dinitrogen fixation. HAp printable inks with controlled nanoporosity and rheological properties have been successfully achieved by incorporating Pluronic hydrogel. Nanoporous scaffolds with good mechanical properties, as demonstrated by means of the nanoindentation technique, have been obtained by a sintering treatment and the posterior thermally induced polarization process. Their catalytic activity has been evaluated by considering three different key reactions (all in the presence of liquid water): (1) the synthesis of amino acids from gas mixtures of N2, CO2, and CH4; (2) the production of ethanol from gas mixtures of CO2 and CH4; and (3) the synthesis of ammonia from N2 gas. Comparison of the yields obtained by using nanoporous and nonporous (conventional) polarized HAp catalysts shows that both the nanoporosity and water absorption capacity of the former represent a drawback when the catalytic reaction requires auxiliary coating layers, as for example for the production of amino acids. This is because the surface nanopores achieved by incorporating Pluronic hydrogel are completely hindered by such auxiliary coating layers. On the contrary, the catalytic activity improves drastically for reactions in which the HAp-based scaffolds with enhanced nanoporosity are used as catalysts. More specifically, the carbon fixation from CO2 and CH4 to yield ethanol improves by more than 3000% when compared with nonporous HAp catalyst. Similarly, the synthesis of ammonia by dinitrogen fixation increases by more than 2000%. Therefore, HAp catalysts based on nanoporous scaffolds exhibit an extraordinary potential for scalability and industrial utilization for many chemical reactions, enabling a feasible green chemistry alternative to catalysts based on heavy metals.

Abstract
Additive manufacturing (3D printing) has not been applicable to micro- and nanoscale engineering due to the limited resolution. Atomic layer deposition (ALD) is a technique for coating large areas with atomic thickness resolution based on tailored surface chemical reactions. Thus, combining the principles of additive manufacturing with ALD could open up a completely new field of manufacturing. Indeed, it is shown that a spatially localized delivery of ALD precursors can generate materials patterns. In this "atomic-layer additive manufacturing" (ALAM), the vertical resolution of the solid structure deposited is about 0.1 nm, whereas the lateral resolution is defined by the microfluidic gas delivery. The ALAM principle is demonstrated by generating lines and patterns of pure, crystalline TiO2 and Pt on planar substrates and conformal coatings of 3D nanostructures. The functional quality of ALAM patterns is exemplified with temperature sensors, which achieve a performance similar to the industry standard. This general method of multimaterial direct patterning is much simpler than standard multistep lithographic microfabrication. It offers process flexibility, saves processing time, investment, materials, waste, and energy. It is envisioned that together with etching, doping, and cleaning performed in a similar local manner, ALAM will create the "atomic-layer advanced manufacturing" family of techniques.

Abstract
Nanomaterials play a crucial role in various areas due to their extraordinary chemical and physical properties. Loading microscopic nanomaterials onto macrostructures is inevitable for their implementation from laboratory experiments to practical applications. Nevertheless, the geometries of conventional supporting structures are usually limited and nanomaterials are easy to be inhomogeneously distributed, aggregated, and lost. Therefore, controllably configuring nanomaterials into sophisticated three-dimensional macroscopic structures without sacrificing their inherent properties remains challenging. Here we utilize the advantages of 3D printing technology to realize this purpose. As a proof-of-concept, the application of 3D stereolithography printed macrostructures containing TiO2 nano particles (TiO2 NPs) for direct adsorption removal of As(III) in water was demonstrated. The morphology and distribution of TiO2 NPs mounted on printed macrostructures were initially characterized. Then batch adsorption experiments were conducted to investigate the effect of the 3D printing process, TiO2 NPs doped concentration and TiO2 NP size as well as adsorption kinetics and isotherms. We also demonstrated that 3D printed adsorption structures could be easily reused over 10 times and were effective for raw arsenic-polluted groundwater samples. Our findings show that 3D printing provides a promising route to design and fabricate customized macrostructures endowed with specific properties of nanomaterials.

Abstract
3D-printed micro-supercapacitors (MSCs) have emerged as the ideal candidates for energy storage devices owing to their unique characteristics of miniaturization, structural diversity, and integration.

Abstract
To better exploit all-liquid 3D architectures, it is essential to understand dynamic processes that occur during printing one liquid in a second immiscible liquid. Here, the interfacial assembly and transition of 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4-sulfonatophenyl) porphyrin (H6 TPPS) over time provides an opportunity to monitor the interfacial behavior of nanoparticle surfactants (NPSs) during all-liquid printing. The formation of J-aggregates of H4 TPPS2- at the interface and the interfacial conversion of the J-aggregates of H4 TPPS2- to H-aggregates of H2 TPPS4- is demonstrated by interfacial rheology and in situ atomic force microscopy. Equally important are the chromogenic changes that are characteristic of the state of aggregation, where J-aggregates are green in color and H-aggregates are red in color. In all-liquid 3D printed structures, the conversion in the aggregate state with time is reflected in a spatially varying change in the color, providing a simple, direct means of assessing the aggregation state of the molecules and the mechanical properties of the assemblies, linking a macroscopic observable (color) to mechanical properties.

Abstract
Mimicking the multi-scale highly ordered hydroxyapatite (HAp) nanocrystal structure of the natural tooth enamel remains a great challenge. Herein, a bottom-up step-by-step strategy is developed using extrusion-based 3D printing technology to achieve a high-precision dental crown with multi-scale highly ordered HAp structure. In this study, hybrid resin-based composites (RBCs) with "supergravity +" HAp nanorods can be printed smoothly via direct ink writing (DIW) 3D printing, induced by shear force through a custom-built nozzle with a gradually shrinking channel. The theoretical simulation results of finite element method are consistent with the experimental results. The HAp nanorods are first highly oriented along a programmable printing direction in a single printed fiber, then arranged in a layer by adjusting the printing path, and finally 3D printed into a highly ordered and complex crown structure. The printed samples with criss-crossed layers by interrupting crack propagation exhibit a flexural strength of 134.1 ± 3.9 MPa and a compressive strength of 361.6 ± 8.9 MPa, which are superior to the corresponding values of traditional molding counterparts. The HAp-monodispersed RBCs are successfully used to print strong and bioactive dental crowns with a printing accuracy of 95%. This new approach can help provide customized components for the clinical restoration of teeth.

Abstract
Additive manufacturing via fused deposition modeling (FDM) has become one of the most widely used technologies owing to its ease of operation and effective cost. However, the disappointing interlayer adhesion produced by FDM often results in inferior mechanical properties, which has become a technical bottleneck for industrial production. Herein, we demonstrate a facile and efficient printing strategy to enhance interlayer adhesion by introducing a self-healing mechanism into the printing material, thereby concurrently enhancing the mechanical properties and isotropy of the printed products. This strategy relies on the self-healing property of three-dimensional-printing materials. This self-healing property is endowed by introducing dynamic urea bonds on the thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) molecular chains, and then, such dynamic bonds can be activated through thermal heating. Accordingly, the synthesized TPU reveals an efficient self-healing property and excellent printability owing to the existence of dynamic reversible covalent bonds. Moreover, objects with complex structures can be split and printed and then assembled using this strategy, avoiding the need for supporting structures and realizing the rapid prototyping of large-sized objects. The printing strategy proposed paves a candidate way to overcome the current challenges in obtaining high-quality products via FDM.

Abstract
Near-field electrospinning (NFES) is a micro- or nanofiber production technology based on jetting molten polymer or polymer solution. Thanks to the programmable collector and nozzle movement, it can generate designed patterns in the presence of an electric field. Despite a few shortcomings of NFES, its high resolution, simplicity, precision, high throughput, reproducibility, and low costs have convinced researchers to employ it for various purposes. Furthermore, as the paradigm of fiber-based structures shifts from random textures toward delicate designs, NFES can bridge the gap between existing inefficient processes and aspired technologies for precise patterning. NFES facilitates the production of ultrafine nanofibers because it can be used to fabricate them in every laboratory. These robust fibers are convenient tools for small and additive manufacturing. As such, NFES is considered a potent additive fabrication technology that facilitates the production of complicated patterns as well. It is suggested that near-field electrospun fibers exhibit outstanding results in various applications, owing to their precise and controllable positioning. Meanwhile, the ongoing development of NFES has yet to reach its climax, making it attractive for further research. In this review, the basic principles of NFES, derivatives, limitations, and applications in nanomanufacturing, tissue engineering, microscale electronics, biosensors, and optics are presented.

Abstract
The ability to fully 3D-print active electronic and optoelectronic devices will enable unique device form factors via strategies untethered from conventional microfabrication facilities. Currently, the performance of 3D-printed optoelectronics can suffer from nonuniformities in the solution-deposited active layers and unstable polymer-metal junctions. Here, we demonstrate a multimodal printing methodology that results in fully 3D-printed flexible organic light-emitting diode displays. The electrodes, interconnects, insulation, and encapsulation are all extrusion-printed, while the active layers are spray-printed. Spray printing leads to improved layer uniformity via suppression of directional mass transport in the printed droplets. By exploiting the viscoelastic oxide surface of the printed cathode droplets, a mechanical reconfiguration process is achieved to increase the contact area of the polymer-metal junctions. The uniform cathode array is intimately interfaced with the top interconnects. This hybrid approach creates a fully 3D-printed flexible 8 × 8 display with all pixels turning on successfully.

Abstract
Hydrogen economy is imagined where excess electric energy from renewable sources stored directly by electrochemical water splitting into hydrogen is later used as clean hydrogen fuel. Electrocatalysts with the superhigh current density (1000 mA cm-2 -level) and long-term durability (over 1000 h), especially at low overpotentials (<300 mV), seem extremely critical for green hydrogen from experiment to industrialization. Along the way, numerous innovative ideas are proposed to design high efficiency electrocatalysts in line with industrial requirements, which also stimulates the understanding of the mass/charge transfer and mechanical stability during the electrochemical process. It is of great necessity to summarize and sort out the accumulating knowledge in time for the development of laboratory to commercial use in this promising field. This review begins with examining the theoretical principles of achieving high-efficiency electrocatalysts with high current densities and excellent durability. Special attention is paid to acquaint efficient strategies to design perfect electrocatalysts including atomic structure regulation for electrical conductivity and reaction energy barrier, array configuration constructing for mass transfer process, and multiscale coupling for high mechanical strength. Finally, the importance and the personal perspective on future opportunities and challenges, is highlighted.

Abstract
Ever-growing demand to develop satisfactory electrochemical devices has driven cutting-edge research in designing and manufacturing reliable solid-state electrochemical energy storage devices (EESDs). 3D printing, a precise and programmable layer-by-layer manufacturing technology, has drawn substantial attention to build advanced solid-state EESDs and unveil intrinsic charge storage mechanisms. It provides brand-new opportunities as well as some challenges in the field of solid-state energy storage. This review focuses on the topic of 3D printing for solid-state energy storage, which bridges the gap between advanced manufacturing and future EESDs. It starts from a brief introduction followed by an emphasis on 3D printing principles, where basic features of 3D printing and key issues for solid-state energy storage are both reviewed. Recent advances in 3D printed solid-state EESDs including solid-state batteries and solid-state supercapacitors are then summarized. Conclusions and perspectives are also provided regarding the further development of 3D printed solid-state EESDs.
