Hello everyone! After a long time waiting and setting up, the new AJA and RTP at Vanderbilt University now are ready to go! Here are a couple of pictures of the new AJA and RTP. I have been working on testing  the new AJA for a while with my old recipes. The new AJA system…

Here are the updated pore processing graphs: The data spreadsheet: pore-processing-results Supplement (added 6/16/09): Here is the Average Pore Size vs. Porosity graph with the outlying data points labeled: After making this graph, I looked at the outliers to see if they were due to my errors. A few were and I redid them, updating the…

As Aim 1 of my thesis involves using theoretical models to be able to predict particle capture, it is important for me to fully understand how each model system behaves when compared to experimental results. One of the most important of these systems is the pressure drop across the membrane in our devices. I have…

Figure 1. A) A TEM image of a SiN nanomembrane. Circles with a rim are pores that span the thickness of the membrane, while grey patches are pits in the surface. B) A pore size histogram generated using image processing software shows that the average minor axis (the restricting axis) is ~ 50 nm.  …
