Highly porous Parylene membranes with precise control over pore size using a single mask
Parylene-C is a biocompatible, inert, FDA-approved and nondegradable material, which can be used to fabricate mechanically robust thin membranes. Parylene is used in the medical device industry for coating implantable devices and in the microelectronics industry as insulator. Furthermore, it has been used in biomedical research for a wide variety of applications. In addition, parylene-C…
Two-step anneal trial
Last week I mentioned that a two step anneal may help with the tears that are forming on the membranes when they are annealed post-etch. The recipe I used was a 10 C/s ramp to 600 C, hold 60 s, 10 C/s ramp to the setpoint, hold 60 s, ramp down. I annealed membranes with…
Adjusted Track-Etched Permeability Plots
ByMike HI recalculated the permeability of the track-etched membranes using Poiseuille’s Law this time assuming that the pore diameters specified by Sterlitech are smaller then the actual pore sizes. For the first recalculation I assumed that the “real pores” are 20% larger then specified by Sterlitech. As shown above the resultant Poiseuille’s Law predictions are much…
