Abstract

Current additive manufacturing (AM) techniques and methods, such as liquid-crystal display (LCD) vat photopolymerization, offer a wide variety of surface-sensing solutions, but customizable internal sensing is both scarce in presence and narrow in scope. In this work, a fabrication process for novel customizable embedded ceramic temperature sensors is investigated. The fabrication techniques and materials are evaluated, followed by extensive characterization via spectral analysis and thermomechanical testing. The findings indicate that LCD-manufactured ceramic sensors exhibit promising sensing properties, including strong linear thermal sensitivity of 0.23% per °C, with an R2 of at least 0.97, and mechanical strength, with a hardness of 570 HV, making them suitable for adverse environmental conditions. This research not only advances the field of AM for sensor development but also highlights the potential of LCD technology in rapidly producing reliable and efficient ceramic temperature sensors.
