An orthogonally chemically reactive microcapsule is derived from a single polymer following a layer-by-layer-deposition process, where a 1,4 conjugate addition reaction provided a basis for sequential deposition of a chemically reactive nanocomplex.

ABSTRACTWhen Ge is deposited epitaxially on Si, the strain energy from the lattice mismatch causes the Ge in layers thicker than about four monolayers to form distinctive, three-dimensional islands. The shape of the islands is determined by the energies of the surface facets, facet edges, and interfaces. When phosphorus is added during the deposition, the surface energies change, modifying the island shapes and sizes, as well as the deposition process. When phosphine is introduced to the germane/hydrogen ambient during Ge deposition, the deposition rate decreases because of competitive adsorption. The steady-state deposition rate is not reached for thin layers. The deposited, doped layers contain three different island shapes, as do undoped layers; however, the island size for each shape is smaller for the doped layers than for the corresponding undoped layers. The intermediate-size islands are the most significant; the intermediate-size doped islands are of the same family as the undoped, multifaceted “dome” structures, but are considerably smaller. The largest doped islands appear to be related to the defective “superdomes” discussed for undoped islands. The distribution between the different island shapes depends on the phosphine partial pressure. At higher partial pressures, the smaller structures are absent. Phosphorus appears to act as a mild surfactant, suppressing small islands.

Unprecedented substrate-independent polymeric 3D nanosheets were induced via simple solution casting using PEGBEM–POEM comb copolymer. A possible mechanism is the change in the polymer–solvent interactions on the surface.

Abstract To make some MF.MS devices such as sensors and actuators be useful in the medical application, it is required to integrate this devices with power or sensor lines and to keep the hole devices biocompatible. Integrating micro machined sensors and actuators with conventional copper lines is incompatible because the thin copper lines are not easy to handle in the mass production. To achieve the compatibility of wiring method between MEMS devices, we developed the thin metal film deposition process that coats micropattered thin copper films on the non silicon-wafer substrate. The process was developed with the custom-made three-dimensional thin film sputter/evaporation system. The system consists of process chamber, two branch chambers, substrate holder unit and linear/rotary motion feedthrough. Thin metal film was deposited on the biocompatible polymer, polyurethane (PellethaneR) and silicone, catheter that is 2 mm in diameter and 1,000 mm in length. We deposited Cr/Cu and Ti/Cu layer and made a comparative study of the deposition processes, sputtering and evaporation. The temperature of both the processes were maintained below 100°C, for the catheter not melting during the processes. To use the films as signal lines connect the signal source to the actuator on the catheter tip, we machined the films into desired patterns with the eximer laser. In this paper, we developed the thin metal film deposition system and processes for the biopolymeric substrate used in the medical MEMS devices.
