Constructing precise metal patterns on complex three-dimensional (3D) plastic parts allows the fabrication of functional devices for advanced applications. However, it is currently expensive and requires complex processes. This study demonstrates a process for the fabrication of 3D metal–plastic composite structures with arbitrarily complex shapes. A light-cured resin is modified to prepare the active precursor allowing subsequent electroless plating (ELP). A multimaterial digital light processing 3D printer was newly developed to fabricate the parts containing regions made of either standard resin or active precursor nested within each other. Selective 3D ELP processing of such parts provided various metal–plastic composite parts having complicated hollow structures with specific topological relationships with the resolution of 40 μm. Using this technique, 3D devices that cannot be manufactured by traditional methods are possible, and metal patterns can be produced inside plastic parts as a means of further miniaturizing electronics. The proposed method can also generate metal coatings exhibiting improved adhesion of metal to substrate. Finally, several sensors composed of different functional materials and specific metal patterns were designed and fabricated. The present results demonstrate the viability of the proposed method and suggest potential applications in the fields of 3D electronics, wearable devices, and sensors.

Three‐dimensional (3D) printing has the potential to revolutionize the way energy storage devices are designed and manufactured. In this paper, we explore the use of 3D printing in the design and production of energy storage devices, especially zinc‐ion batteries (ZIBs) and examine its potential advantages over traditional manufacturing methods. 3D printing could significantly improve the customization of ZIBs, making it a promising strategy for the future of energy storage. In particular, 3D printing allows for the creation of complex, customized geometries, and designs that can optimize the energy density, power density, and overall performance of batteries. Simultaneously, we discuss and compare the impact of 3D printing design strategies based on different configurations of film, interdigitation, and framework on energy storage devices with a focus on ZIBs. Additionally, 3D printing enables the rapid prototyping and production of batteries, reducing leading times and costs compared with traditional manufacturing methods. However, there are also challenges and limitations to consider, such as the need for further development of suitable 3D printing materials and processes for energy storage applications.

“…Additionally, the allprinted planar solid-state supercapacitor exhibited an exceptional 1329 mF cm −2 areal specific capacitance at 4.2±0.8 mA cm −2 , which represents the highest achievement to date using the DIW method. [110,111] Similarly, Chen and co-workers used CNT-based ink for the fabrication of fully-packaged supercapacitors. In this work, fully packaged and sealed supercapacitors were fabricated directly on a flexible polyimide substrate using a CNT ink consisting of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) as a major component, with a silicone packaging and PVA gel electrolyte.…”

The increasing adoption of additive manufacturing (AM), also known as 3D printing, is revolutionizing the production of wearable electronics and energy storage devices (ESD) such as batteries, supercapacitors, and fuel cells. This surge can be attributed to its outstanding process versatility, precise control over geometrical aspects, and potential to reduce costs and material waste. In this comprehensive review, major AM processes like inkjet printing, direct ink writing, fused deposition modeling, and selective laser sintering/melting along with possible configurations and architectures, are elaborately discussed for each bespoke ESD. The application of 3D‐printed energy storage devices in wearable electronics, Internet of Things (IoT)‐based devices, and electric vehicles are also mentioned in the review. The role of AM in facilitating the production of solid‐state batteries has also revolutionized the electric vehicle (EV) industry. Recent progress in the field of AM of energy systems with solid electrolytes and potential future directions such as 4D printing to incorporate stimuli‐responsive behavior in 3D‐printed materials, biomimetic design optimization, and additive manufacturing of ESD in a micro‐gravity environment have also been highlighted. Extensive research and continuous progress in this field are expected to enhance the longetivity, industrial scalability, and electrochemical performance of 3D‐printed energy storage devices in future.
