3D Print reports that Shenqiang Ren, professor of mechanical and aerospace engineering, led a team of researchers that developed a unique method for 3D printing ferroelectric materials, which offers interesting possibilities for metamaterials and electronic devices.
“The sky is the limit when it comes to ferroelectric metamaterials,” said Shenqiang Ren, professor of mechanical and aerospace engineering.
Their results were published in the paper “A 3D-printed molecular ferroelectric metamaterial” in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. Co-authors included UB associate professors Mostafa Nouh and Chi Zhou.
