This experiment is to determine if the time between the SC1 clean and when the wafers get deposited matter. Currently there is suspicion that an SC1 from an RCA clean should at RIT should be done right before deposition, .…

Discoloration CVC vs. AJA Tool
Based on Barrett’s array set up for discoloration, I set up an array experiment to check the discoloration effects between the new and old system ( 2e-7,AJA vs the older 7e-7 CVC ). The wafers from each had a bit…
Sepcon-Transwell hybrid devices
I’ve been working with the Corning transwell inserts and our SepCon units a bit recently. The addition of the Dremel last week has allowed better control while cutting the transwells, even without the right angle attachment (which will allow cutting…
Update on Anodic Bonding at RIT
Yesterday Henry and I went over to RIT to perform anodic bonding and parylene deposition using the new membrane configuration of W619 (with the etched trenches for our capillary tubing). I just wanted to post a summary of the process…
Humidity is Affecting PDMS-pncSi Bonding
A few weeks ago Dave dropped of a humidity monitor for the third floor equipment room. Since then I have been recording the humidity every time I run a UV Ozone process for PDMS-glass or PDMS-pncSi bonding and there seems…
Repeated Success with Flow System
Yesterday I started a test to try and reproduce the results Henry was able to obtain with a closed flow system last week. Using four samples (W619) I ran the UV Ozone bonding process and allowed them to sit over…
Using UV Ozone to Bond PDMS to Glass
I talked with Jim last Friday about a second possible dialysis system using PDMS bound to a glass cover slip. I made a batch of PDMS and let it cure at room temperature over the past few days. Jim had…
Electron Beam Evaporator Protocol
Electron Beam Evaporator Protocol (V_1.0) – Lingyun Here is the first version protocol of the electron beam evaporator at RIT clean room. There is not too much to put down here – the best way to learn this is to…
Cell Labeling on Si
Below is an image of HUVEC grown on RTP treated W303 for 72 hours. The cells were seeded at high density and therefore reached confluence prior to day 3. The first row shows the membrane area of the sample; the…
