While Chris and I were in Boston we deposited our membrane stack on a patterned wafer. It was annealed at 1000 C and then etched. Because we didn’t have an accurate deposition rate for Silicon, we overestimated and put down 30 nm (instead of 15 nm). Still, we can see in the TEM that pores are forming even in the thicker film.

As the title states, I partially etched some different material (Wafer 2238, 100 nm NPN) to create nanofeatures with blown out holes. With a thicker membrane, we can blow out the pores more (etch longer) without compromising the strength of the material (with regard to templating purposes). These membranes were fractured and coated with 6…
So I got few nanonitride chips with a pncSi cap on it from Josh (#1019, 320 um sub, 50 nm SiN, 40/20). I annealed them before using it for cell culture. Instead of using the existing CytoVu designs, I made some household cell culturing platforms as shown in the figure below. filled the whole petri…
We got a bunch of extremely nice EO wafers through the pipeline, and I’ve been trying to do some experiments with them. There’s very few pinholes on these wafers, and the pores are beautiful. My experiments so far have been w/ SC 166. Pore image: Contributed area distribution: We need the following figures for our…
I first reported the crystallization of free-standing amorphous silicon membranes in this post in January. The last experiment was done inside the susceptor (top and bottom piece). This week, I annealed a set of amorphous 15 nm and 30 nm with the susceptor top off. This allowed for the direct heating of the films. One…
Hello Everyone, Here is an update of our meeting in Strong Hospital: So They are working in an urology lab, We met Sam who is a technician in Dr. Carla Beckham’s lab, he is responsible for cell culture part of the project. The cell line that they are working with is T24 with 80 -95% confluency….
