Morphology, pore size distribution, specific surface area, chemical bonds, and hydrophobicity of the self-assembled particles were analyzed. The self-assembled particles were spherical in shape and composed of micro, meso and macro pores. Average diameter of the product particles was around 2 µm. The pore size distribution of the particles ranged from 1.5 to 200 nm. The degree of methanol wettability representing hydrophobicity of the product particles was directly proportional to TMCS concentration and ranged from 35 to 58%.","PeriodicalId":254587,"journal":{"name":"10th IEEE International Conference on Nanotechnology","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115798407","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our technique is stripping graphene by scotch tape from the chemical vapor deposition (CVD)-grown layer, except the gap region between the source and drain electrode. The current-voltage (I–V) characteristic of a graphene FET before stripping shows a large zero-bias conductance of 6.5 mS and no gate operation. After stripping, the zero gate bias conductance of the device is reduced to 23 µS and a clear gate operation is observed. The change of FET characteristics before and after stripping is due to the formation of a urn size graphene flake. There is large potential that this one-step stripping technique can be extended to a more controllable method to fabricate graphene FET devices.","PeriodicalId":254587,"journal":{"name":"10th IEEE International Conference on Nanotechnology","volume":"2013 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134038595","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

TBP (TATA Box Protein) and their specific aptamers (aptamer #12 and #24) were chosen for a model system to a proof of concept. Broad ranges of sensing capability (from few nM to mM) with good linearity up to 400 nM were shown in our aptamer microarray platform by sandwich assay.
