  • To assess the potential of affordable microchip lasers to broaden MPL accessibility.
  • To demonstrate the creation of complex 3D microarchitectures using the new laser source.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized a 36.6 kHz microchip Nd:YAG laser for multiphoton lithography.
  • Fabricated protein-based microforms and complex 3D microarchitectures.
  • Compared fabrication times with existing microchip laser sources.

Main Results:

  • Achieved an approximate 4-fold decrease in fabrication times for protein-based microforms.
  • Demonstrated the successful creation of intricate 3D microarchitectures.
  • Confirmed the utility of the high-repetition-rate microchip laser for MPL.

Conclusions:

  • The high-repetition-rate microchip Nd:YAG laser significantly enhances MPL efficiency.
  • This technology offers a more accessible and faster alternative for 3D microfabrication.
  • The findings pave the way for broader research applications of MPL.
