AlpZhi Inc is an early stage technology start-up involved in research and development related to micro fabrication. Its core competence lies in the field of fabrication of micron scaled devices, which can be used to create a variety of micro-scaled components including micro-optics, micro-fluidics, and miniature circuits. The firm is currently focused on refining its proprietary process that reduces the fabrication process time by eight fold and increases design flexibility to target the optics' market.
AlpZhiâs fabrication process is based on an advanced stereolithography technique in which light is used to cure photosensitive polymer, thus adding material to match the required final dimensions. The firms platform fabrication technology can enable creation of such advanced products as 3D TVs, flexible displays, compact bio-sensors, and high-efficiency solar panels
AlpZhiâs technology improves in three areas over the other competing technologies. It is a single step process, it requires no specialty parts, and it is an intelligent process that integrates the characteristics of the material into the design to make high quality optical elements. Software controlled digital manufacturing leads to relatively inexpensive fabrication as compared to conventional processes. AlpZhiâs fabrication processes can generate lenses ranging from 10 micrometers to 10 millimeters without altering the tooli
