Fabrication of three-dimensional microstructures based on singled-layered SU-8 for lab-on-chip applications
This paper introduces a novel 3D manufacturing approach to the rapid processing of microfluidic components such as embedded channels and microvalves, using a scanning laser system. Compared to existing manufacturing techniques, our direct UV laser writing method greatly simplifies fabrication processes, potentially reducing the design-to-fabrication time to a few hours, which is extremely benef...
متن کاملThree Dimensional Computational Fluid Dynamics Analysis of a Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell
A full three-dimensional, single phase computational fluid dynamics model of a proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) with both the gas distribution flow channels and the Membrane Electrode Assembly (MEA) has been developed. A single set of conservation equations which are valid for the flow channels, gas-diffusion electrodes, catalyst layers, and the membrane region are developed and numer...
متن کاملFabrication of micro- and nano-photonic structures in dye-doped polymers and nonlinear optical crystals using high energy proton beam
Proton beam writing (PBW) is a new direct-write technique developed at Centre for Ion Beam Applications, National University of Singapore for creating three-dimensional, high aspect ratio microand nano-structures with straight and smooth sidewalls in resits, polymers, glasses, and other materials. Here we present some results of our initial efforts on the direct writing of photonic structures i...
متن کاملExposure parameters in proton beam writing for hydrogen silsesquioxane
In proton beam writing (PBW) a focused MeV proton beam is scanned in a predetermined pattern over a resist (e.g. PMMA, SU-8 or HSQ), which is subsequently chemically developed. In e-beam writing as well as p-beam writing the energy loss of the primary beam is dominated by energy transfer to substrate electrons. Unlike the high energy secondary electrons generated during e-beam writing the secon...
متن کاملProton beam writing a platform technology for high quality three- dimensional metal mold fabrication for nanofluidic applications
Direct write nanolithographic techniques are powerful techniques to fabricate masters for nano-imprint lithography (NIL). Proton beam writing (PBW) is a relatively new technique which has shown great potential in fabricating three-dimensional (3D) nanostructures in polymer resist material down to the 20 nm level. MeV protons generate secondary electrons and like in many lithographic processes t...
