Porous Organic Nanolayers for Coating of Solid-state Devices
(BioMed Central ;Department of Electrical Engineering, University of Texas at Arlington, 2011-05-14)Highly hydrophobic surfaces can have very low surface energy and such low surface energy biological interfaces can be obtained using fluorinated coatings on surfaces. Deposition of biocompatible organic films on solid-state ... -
Self-assembled synthesis and characterization of microchannels in polymeric membranes
(American Institute of Physics,Department of Electrical Engineering, University of Texas at Arlington, 2012-07-19)This article describes a novel self-assembly approach to create microchannels in polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) membranes using poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) and polyurethane (PU). The interactions between hydrophilic PEO/PU ... -
Shrinking of Solid-state Nanopores by Direct Thermal Heating
(Asghar et al;SpringerOpen;Department of Electrical Engineering, University of Texas at Arlington, Arlington, 2011-05-04)Solid-state nanopores have emerged as useful single-molecule sensors for DNA and proteins. A novel and simple technique for solid-state nanopore fabrication is reported here. The process involves direct thermal heating of ... -
Viscosity and surface-free energy effects in thermal shrinking of solid-state nanopores
(American Institute of Physics;Department of Electrical Engineering, University of Texas at Arlington, 2012-06-05)Solid-state nanopores are fabricated by either drilling these in thin membranes or by shrinking large pores with electron/ion beam. Simple heating of thin membranes with many large pores has been shown recently to controllably ...
