Abstract
Multi-photon direct laser writing (mpDLW) experiments, Z-scan spectroscopy, and quantum chemical calculations indicate that the initiators used in the photo-polymerizable resin SU-8 are capable of three-photon excitation at or near the vacuum wavelength of 800 nm and that this excitation mode affects its performance when the material is used to micro-fabricate three-dimensional structures by mpDLW. These findings can be leveraged to improve its use for fabricating three-dimensional micro-structures.
