Manufacturer’s Data
Overview I burst pressure tested TEM chips with 1×1 mm windows of 100 nm SiO2 that were both annealed and unannealed (provided by JP and Josh Miller). In our experience it seems that the forming gas (H2/N2) annealed chips are stronger and never wrinkle. These burst pressure tests were performed in an attempt to…
Summary I want to imitate the material properties from 1085 as they have given us the best SERS performance to date. We have the best information that we’ve ever had before imitating the nanostructure and nanotopology from the MgF2. Our belief is that getting infilled Au close together in a nanopore dramatically enhances the electric…
For this experiment, 3um diameter pores were created using SimPore’s mask. Reactive Ion Etching was used to form the pores in the SiN. Both 25nm and 150nm TEOS oxides were used. An SU8 Structure of 10um lines with 100um square windows was chosen. A sample was placed in 10:1 BOE w/ surfactant for various amounts…
The movable cutoff gels were more or less successful, but were too dirty for publication (see knowledge page). I’ve been trying to rerun them so that they look nicer, but the darker stain that I used has brought out a few new observations. The first gel following this paragraph is the new gel. The second…
Hey all! In this post, I’d like to present some of my final data on the exosome isolation project and cover some data that was generated in response to questions asked during our previous discussion. To begin with, Tom asked whether or not it was possible to measure protein in the filtrate and retentate and…
Document: Ian’s Presentation Thanks to Ian Krout for the experiment and the writeup, which I have organized here. The purpose of this set-up was to develop a tool to melt plastic particles collected on the silicon nanomembranes membranes. Due to the different melting temperatures of plastic polymers this tool allows users the ability to rapidly…
