3D Diatom–Designed and Selective Laser Melting (SLM) Manufactured Metallic Structures

Abstract Diatom frustules, with their diverse three-dimensional regular silica structures and nano- to micrometer dimensions, represent perfect model systems for biomimetic fabrication of materials and devices. The structure of a frustule of the diatom Didymosphenia geminata was nondestructively vis...
