Congrats Dave!

This is my draft presentation for my CMSR presentation on December 4th. Link

This is some preliminary data that I put into my F32 postdoc fellowship application.  It is a comparison of rhodamine transport through pnc-Si and PET transwells.  These studies were done with PBS as the buffer.  Sample volume = .1mL, donor volume = .3mL, receiver volume = 1mL, initial [rhodamine] = .5mM.  I set the experiments…

I took a sample from w304 over to the Krauss Lab and had them try to image it with AFM. Here are a few pictures (for some reason the color scales weren’t included in a couple of them, but they go from 0-dark to 5-light nm): In both images you can surprisingly see the pores….

In an effort to conserve membrane samples I am working to run diffusion experiments with a mixture of BSA and DDM. This will only use 2 chips instead of 4. In our meeting on Tuesday it was mentioned that BSA can be detected using the TECAN at 280nm, while DDM is not detected at that…

Last week’s production yielded six wafers, all deposited at room temperature. Here were the annealing conditions: Wafer 334, 343 – RTP @ 975CWafer 341, 344 – RTP @ 975C + FA @ 1000CWafer 342, 345 – FA @ 1000 C Pinhole density was moderate along the edges of the wafer, with one or two pinholes…
