Abstract:
This invention claims a method for creating patterns of carbon or other elements as deposits on the surface of substrates or as self-supporting filaments in liquid or solid media by the selected application of directed energy. In some embodiments, the deposits or filaments may be of primary interest because of their mechanical properties. In other embodiments, the patterns may have useful physical properties such as being electrically conductive, semi-conductive or electric insulators. Many different deposit precursors, types of directed energy, and adjunct reagents are described. The invention anticipates numerous different embodiments created by selecting various combinations of these elements and sequences of application as a means to build complex devices. In particular, the patterns may constitute the elements of an electric circuit or device (e.g., wires, capacitors, diodes, transistors).

Claim (Index 29):
A method of forming a three-dimensional plastic part using a plastic resin in place of the reaction mixture as described in  claims 27  except that the post-polymerization heating is only hot enough to ensure full polymerization of the resin, but is not hot enough to decompose the resin; and the options for directed energy are limited to bombardment with high energy ions (which preferentially deposit energy at the Bragg peak) or x-ray interference patterns (because of opacity of the resins to longer wavelength electromagnetic radiation).
