Powder metal processing provides scalable advantages in nanoporous (np) metal development. Mechanical alloying is used to produce unique precursors for hybrid nanopore formation by oxide reduction and dealloying. As demonstrated in np Ag, this approach improves process efficiency while promoting smaller ligaments and larger pores, both of which are ...

The black silicon method: a universal method for determining the parameter setting of a fluorine-based reactive ion etcher in deep silicon trench etching with profile control [PDF]
Very deep trenches (up to 200 µm) with high aspect ratios (up to 10) in silicon and polymers are etched using a fluorine-based plasma (SF6/O2/CHF3). Isotropic, positively and negatively (i.e.

Planar Solid‐State Nanopores Toward Scalable Nanofluidic Integration Based on CMOS Technology
We present a scalable silicon‐based fabrication strategy for planar solid‐state nanopores to enable their integration with complex nanofluidic systems. Prototype devices demonstrate normal voltage‐current characteristics, good noise performance, and appreciable streaming currents. Our CMOS‐compatible fabrication process offers precise geometric control

The corrosion performance of AlSi7Mg and AlSi10Mg alloys produced through selective laser melting (SLM) was examined under compressive stress in a chloride environment. Electrochemical analyses, including open‐circuit potential (OCP), potentiodynamic polarization (CPP), and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), were complemented by scanning ...

Metal mask free dry-etching process for integrated optical devices applying highly photostabilized resist. [PDF]
Photostabilization is a widely used post lithographic resist treatment process, which allows to harden the resist profile in order to maintain critical dimensions and to increase selectivity in subsequent process steps such as reactive ion etching.
