Abstract
Micro/nanorobots (MNRs) capable of per forming tasks at the micro-and nanoscale hold great promise for applications in cutting-edge fields such as biomedical engineering, environmental engineering, and microfabrication. However, the design and manufacturing of high-performance MNRs with complex multi-material three-dimensional structures at the micro-and nanoscale pose significant challenges that cannot be addressed by conventional s erial design strategies and single-process manufacturing methods. The material-interface-structure-function/performance coupled design methods and the additive/ formative/subtractive composite manufacturing (AFS-CM) methods off er an opportunity to design and manufacture MNRs with multi-materials and comple x structures under multi-factor coupling, thus paving the way for the developmen t of high-performance MNRs.
