© 2019 by the authors.The advent of micro and nanotechnologies, such as microfabrication, have impacted scientific research and contributed to meaningful real-world applications, to a degree seen during historic technological ...

Currently, there is a variety of laboratory tools and strategies that have been developed to investigate in-vivo processes using in-vitro models. Amongst these, microfabrication represents a disruptive technology that is ...

We report on the femtosecond-laser micromachining of poly[2-methoxy-5-(2-ethylhexyloxy)-1,4-phenylenevinylene] (MEH-PPV) films. We study the influence of pulse energy and scanning speed on the microstructures produced on ...

This article presents a systematic and logical study of the topology optimized design, microfabrication, and static/dynamic performance characterization of an electro-thermo-mechanical microgripper. The microgripper is ...

Anovel nanocomposite resist is presented based on AgNWs dispersed in poly(methyl methacrylate). It is shown that this nanocomposite resist displays sheet resistances below 10 O sq-1 for concentrations of AgNWs higher than ...

This work demonstrated the fabrication of tubular waveguides in bulk samples of PMMA doped with Disperse Red 13 (DR13) by oscillator only fs-laser micromachining. We studied the influence of the incident pulse energy on ...

Studies of cell development in artificial microenvironments can contribute to understanding a series of physiological mechanisms that might be influenced by geometrical features of the microenvironment itself. In this work ...
