About
Michael J. Haslinger is a researcher at the forefront of advanced manufacturing, specializing in the convergence of nanoimprint lithography and additive manufacturing. His work tackles the fundamental challenge of patterning functional nanostructures onto non-planar, arbitrary surfaces—a critical bottleneck for next-generation optics, sensors, and biomedical devices. Haslinger’s most-cited paper, “Function follows form: combining nanoimprint and inkjet printing” (2017), lays the conceptual and technical groundwork for integrating these two disparate processes. His key contribution lies in demonstrating the technical requirements for precise material deposition onto curved substrates, effectively merging the high-resolution capabilities of nanoimprint with the design flexibility of inkjet printing. This hybrid approach opens new pathways for creating conformal, functional surfaces that were previously impossible to fabricate. While his citation count is still growing, Haslinger’s work is notable for its forward-looking, foundational nature, directly addressing a core limitation in scalable nanofabrication. His research is particularly relevant for students and engineers interested in the future of additive manufacturing, where the ability to print function directly onto form will be transformative.
