The Impact

The importance of microarrays in diagnostics and medicine has drastically increased in the last few years. Nevertheless, the efficiency of a microarray-based assay intrinsically depends on the density and functionality of the biorecognition elements immobilized onto each sensor spot. Recently, researchers have put effort into developing new functionalization strategies and technologies which provide efficient immobilization and stability of any sort of molecule. Here, we present an overview of the most widely used methods of surface functionalization of microarray substrates, as well as the most recent advances in the field, and compare their performance in terms of optimal immobilization of the bioreceptor molecules. We focus on label-free microarrays and, in particular, we aim to describe the impact of surface chemistry on two types of microarray-based sensors: microarrays for single particle imaging and for label-free measurements of binding kinetics. Both protein and DNA microarrays are taken into consideration, and the effect of different polymeric coatings on the molecules’ functionalities is critically analyzed.

Electric Field Direction

Carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) composites are lightweight materials with superior strength but are expensive due to the increased cost of carbon fibers (CFs). The addition of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) to polymer nanocomposites are becoming an excellent alternative to CF due to their unique combination of electrical, thermal, and mechanical properties. With the application of an electric field across the CNT/polymer mixture before curing, CNTs will not only be aligned along the electric field direction, but also form networks after reaching to a certain degree of alignment. In this study, an alternating current (AC) electric field was applied continuously to CNT/CF/Epoxy hybrid composites before curing. By cutting off the applied voltage when the monitored electric current increased, the degree of networking of CNTs between two CF tows was controlled. The relative electric field strength around the end of conductive carbon fiber tows in the epoxy matrix was modeled using COMSOL Multiphysics. It increased after applying AC electric field parallel to the CF tows, thereby increasing the alignment degree of CNTs and building a network to bridge the CF tows. The preliminary results indicate that the microhardness and tensile modulus between two CF tows are increased due to the networking of CNTs in this area. The fracture surface of the specimens after tensile tests were characterized to reveal more details of the microstructure.

ABSTRACTIon-beam sputtering (IBS) has been studied as a means for scalable, mask-less nanopatterning of surfaces. Patterning at the nanoscale has been achieved for numerous types of materials including: semiconductors, metals and insulators. Although much work has been focused on tailoring nanopatterning by systematic ion-beam parameter manipulation, limited work has addressed elucidating on the underlying mechanisms for self-organization of multi-component surfaces. In particular there has been little attention to correlate the surface chemistry variation during ion irradiation with the evolution of surface morphology and nanoscale self-organization. Moreover the role of surface impurities on patterning is not well known and characterization during the time-scale of modification remains challenging. This work summarizes an in-situ approach to characterize the evolution of surface chemistry during irradiation and its correlation to surface nanopatterning for a variety of multi-components surfaces. The work highlights the importance and role of surface impurities in nanopatterning of a surface during low-energy ion irradiation. In particular, it shows the importance of irradiation-driven mechanisms in GaSb(100) nanopatterning by low-energy ions and how the study of these systems can be impacted by oxide formation.
