Abstract: The invention relates to configurations for MRI or NMR measurements comprising one or more 3D-printed hollow elements, adapted to the shape of an object to be measured wherein in one or more of the 3D-printed elements the wall of the elements is made of a UV-curable electrically non-conducting material forming one or more channels, characterised in that in at least one of the elements with said walls a channel comprises of at least two material plugs of at least two different immiscible materials selected from the group consisting of a dielectric material, an electrically conductive material, and a material with high electrical resistance.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for three dimensional printing of a porous object enabling the capillary transport of hydrophilic fluids, for use as liquid handling device, for example as a point of care diagnostic device. The invention also provides the porous object obtainable or obtained by such methods, and its use in liquid handling or as a point of care diagnostic device.

Abstract: A method of producing a metal-organic framework (MOF) film on a substrate is provided. The method includes providing a substrate having a main surface and forming on the main surface a MOF film using an organometallic compound precursor and at least one organic ligand, wherein each of the organometallic compound precursor and the at least one organic ligand is provided only in the vapour phase.

Abstract: Example embodiments relate to selective deposition of metal-organic frameworks. One embodiment includes a method of forming a low-k dielectric film selectively on exposed dielectric locations in a substrate. The method includes selectively depositing a metal-containing film, using an area-selective deposition process, on the exposed dielectric locations using one or more deposition cycles. The method also includes providing, at least once, a vapor of at least one organic ligand to the deposited metal-containing film resulting in a gas-phase chemical reaction thereby obtaining a metal-organic framework which is the low-k dielectric film. The low-k dielectric film has gaps on locations where no metal-containing film was deposited.
