Describing diverse specific techniques, 3D printing enables rapid production of individual objects and creating shapes that would not be produced with other techniques. One of the drawbacks of typical 3D printing processes, however, is the layered structure of the created parts. This is especially problematic in the production of optical elements, which in most cases necessitate highly even surfaces. To meet this challenge, advanced 3D printing techniques as well as other sophisticated solutions can be applied. Here, we give an overview of 3D printed optical elements, such as lenses, mirrors, and waveguides, with a focus on freeform optics and other elements for which 3D printing is especially well suited.\r\n                ","lang":"eng"}],"publication_identifier":{"eissn":["1618-7229"]},"type":"journal_article","main_file_link":[{"open_access":"1","url":"https://doi.org/10.1515/epoly-2021-0061"}],"quality_controlled":"1","volume":21,"doi":"10.1515/epoly-2021-0061","keyword":["additive manufacturing","diffraction","optical splitters","polarizer","whispering-gallery-mode resonators"],"author":[{"full_name":"Blachowicz, Tomasz","last_name":"Blachowicz","first_name":"Tomasz"},{"first_name":"Guido","full_name":"Ehrmann, Guido","last_name":"Ehrmann"},{"full_name":"Ehrmann, Andrea","orcid_put_code_url":"https://api.orcid.org/v2.0/0000-0003-0695-3905/work/105572137","last_name":"Ehrmann","orcid":"0000-0003-0695-3905","first_name":"Andrea","id":"223776"}],"issue":"1","publisher":"Walter de Gruyter GmbH","oa":"1"}
