Additive Manufacturing (AM), commonly known as 3D printing, is reshaping how optical and photonic devices are designed and fabricated. This book introduces readers to the expanding role of AM in photonics, providing both foundational theory and practical insight into how these technologies are applied to create novel optical components. Aimed at graduate students and early-career researchers, the book surveys a broad spectrum of AM techniques relevant to photonics—including stereolithography, selective laser sintering, digital light processing and direct laser writing. Throughout, the book emphasizes the opportunities and current limitations of AM for photonic device engineering. It provides a practical entry point for those new to the field, while offering insights valuable to experienced researchers seeking to integrate 3D printing into their photonics workflow. Key Features: Emerging trends and prospects: Brings the most forefront progress in technologies and applications used in additive manufacturing for optics and photonics. Also, provides future prospects of this technology in different fields. Wide range of industry applications: Additive manufacturing has huge potential to revolutionize optics and photonics fields. This will benefit several industries including telecommunications, sensors, healthcare, and aerospace, among others, that are strictly involved with optical technologies. Demonstrates case studies: Shows the most up-to-date research works of successful applications and challenges of additive manufacturing in optics, offering practical insights and inspiration for people interested in learning or developing components and structures for optical projects. Educational tool: It can serve as an educational resource for students, researchers, and professionals who want to learn more about the benefits of additive manufacturing in optics and photonics.
