The valve membrane is made of parylene, thus has very compact size (300 µm x 300 µm) and excellent chemical resistance. The operation of valves was characterized to reveal the effects of several parameters such as actuation and inlet pressure. The valve demonstrates a flow rate as high as 0.33ml/min in open state with 15.5psi inlet pressure, and very low leaking rate. With the proposed novel control logic, the microfabricated valve array device is expected to be very suitable for fluidic manipulation in integrated lab-on-a-chip systems in which aggressive chemicals are involved and high throughputs are required.","PeriodicalId":344661,"journal":{"name":"2004 International Conference on MEMS, NANO and Smart Systems (ICMENS'04)","volume":"102 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2004-08-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124691484","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}

It probes the characteristic vibrational modes of chemical bonds in molecules to provide information about not only the chemical composition but also the local bonding configuration and environment of the chemical bond. The IR spectral technique can be used with minimal consumables to simultaneously detect large variety of chemical and biochemical species. To date, mainly large bulk-optic Fourier Transform (FT-IR) spectrometers employing variations of the Michelson interferometer have been successfully employed in space due to the attainable performance. However, they typically require costly, large spacecraft platforms and complex environmental controls that limit the deployment of IR spectroscopy. In the following paper, we discuss the use of advanced optical coding and signal processing techniques, as facilitated using MEMS multi-channel optical signal processors, to significantly extend the performance limitations of miniature integrated-optic IR spectrometers. This technology can provide high-performance broad-band IR spectrometers suitable for passive monitoring in a compact module weighing under 2 kg.","PeriodicalId":344661,"journal":{"name":"2004 International Conference on MEMS, NANO and Smart Systems (ICMENS'04)","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2004-08-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126975657","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}

The two main merits of this type of biomolecular computing process based on Rho family GTPases are the low cost of pathway control for cells and the high efficiency of the related computing processes, when certain pathway controllers are designed for the engineered pathway units of biomolecular computers. In this paper, we report our latest results on designing experimentally feasible operators and the related computer architecture of the engineered pathways in cells under the regulation of Rho family GTPases for solving large-scale benchmark problems by biomolecular computers, where the crosstalking processes among the pathways, feedback between the downstream and upstream pathways, and interaction with the nuclear receptors of cells are employed. This is a prerequisite for experimental implementation of a computing nanobiomachine based on the signaling pathways of Rho family GTPases in the form of living cells, which can cut costs in the number of controlled molecules for engineered pathways when the interaction ratings of pathways is regulated on the scale of an entire cell.","PeriodicalId":344661,"journal":{"name":"2004 International Conference on MEMS, NANO and Smart Systems (ICMENS'04)","volume":"48 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2004-08-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131264428","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}

We have used variable angle spectroscopic ellipsometry, a technique generally used in the semiconductor industry, to identify proteins. For immobilizing the proteins, 1-octadecanethiol (C-18) coated to gold (Au) substrate has been used because of its low surface energy. In order to characterize 1-octadecanethiol and evaluate its re-usability, fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) was employed.

The functional features of nanostructures manifest on length scale from one to hundreds nanometers and time scale up to microseconds and more, but all stem from microscopic properties of the atoms and chemical groups they are built of. Explicit molecular modeling of such nanosystems involving millions of molecules is by far not feasible with ab initio methods and molecular simulations, and requires multiple-scale approaches. Statistical-mechanical theory of molecular liquids and other disordered systems successfully describes the molecular structure and thermodynamics of nanosystems, with proper account of their chemical functionalities.¹-⁴ It operates with spatial/temporal distributions of species averaged over the statistical ensemble rather than with trajectories of individual molecules. This coarse-graining, however, keeps the short-range detail of the solvation structure of chemical specificities, such as the hydrophobic effects, hydrogen bonding, and other association effects.
