Carbon micro- and nanoelectrodes fabricated by carbon microelectromechanical systems (carbon MEMS) are increasingly used in various biosensors and supercapacitor applications. Surface modification of as-produced carbon electrodes with oxygen functional groups is sometimes necessary for biofunctionalization or to improve electrochemical properties.
EV Group, a developer of wafer bonding and lithography equipment for the MEMS, nanotechnology and semiconductor markets, is partnering with DELO, amanufacturer of industrial adhesives, specified for wafer-level optics. The partners are combining efforts to "enable novel optical devices and applications, such as biometric authentication and ...
The findings are described in a paper published today in Nature Nanotechnology. "Having a method to sculpt crystals at the nanoscale precisely, quickly, and without the need for traditional top-down processes, presents major advantages for widespread utilization of nanomaterials in technology applications," said Thomas J. Kempa, a chemistry ...
“It’s this combination of the water and the micro-scale roughness that causes the surface to become so slippery,” says Tak-Sing Wong, an associate professor of mechanical engineering and biomedical engineering and one of the authors of a new paper about the technology published today in Nature Sustainability.
