Abstract
Methods and systems for direct-write liquid phase epitaxy of ionic materials are provided for herein, and relate to the manufacture of metal halide optics among other applications. Deposition of the ionic material is induced by mixing at least two fluids of differing composition, wherein the solubility limit of the ionic material in the mixed solution is lower than predicted from a linear combination of the original fluids. This deposition process is spatially controlled using a printhead, enabling localized material deposition and the ability to create arbitrary geometries in turn. In some cases, at least one of the fluids is saturated with the ionic material and surrounds the substrate upon which deposition occurs.
