Researchers at the University of Dayton have created a less expensive 3-D printing method on the nanoscale that can manufacture nanostructures and erase mistakes. 3-D printing has been used widely by engineers and designers for years for the rapid prototyping of custom projects, but until now, 3-D printing on a nanoscale was costly, challenging, and difficult to correct manufacturing mistakes.
