Abstract Conventional photopolymerization-based 3D printing still requires developing a concise and cost-effective method to improve the resolution at nanoscale. Here, we propose use of gaming console optical drive pickup unit for photopolymerization. This mass-produced features finely adjustable diode laser, allowing us adjust from tens micrometres down hundreds nanometres without requiring ox...
