However, existing technologies for repository development and operation face challenges in terms of accuracy, precision, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness, especially for microdevices used in gamete quality evaluation. Quality management is critical throughout genetic resource protection processes from sample collection to final usage. In this study, we examined the potential of using three-dimensional (3-D) stereolithography resin printing to address these challenges and evaluated the overall capabilities and limitations of a representative industrial 3-D resin printer with a price of US$18,000, a consumer-level printer with a price &lt;US$700, and soft lithography, a conventional microfabrication method. A standardized test object, the Integrated Geometry Sampler (IGS), and a device with application in repository quality management, the Single-piece Sperm Counting Chamber (SSCC), were printed to determine capabilities and evaluate differences in targeted versus printed depths and heights. The IGS design had an array of negative and positive features with dimensions ranging from 1 mm to 0.02 mm in width and depth. The SSCC consisted of grid and wall features to facilitate cell counting. The SSCC was evaluated with polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) devices cast from a typical photoresist and silicon mold. Fabrication quality was evaluated by optical profilometry for parameters such as dimensional accuracy, precision, and visual morphology. Fabrication time and cost were also evaluated. The precision, reliability, and surface quality of industrial-grade 3-D resin printing were satisfactory for operations requiring depths or heights larger than 0.1 mm due to a low discrepancy between targeted and measured dimensions across a range of 1 mm to 0.1 mm. Meanwhile, consumer-grade printers were suitable for microdevices with depths or heights larger than 0.2 mm. While the performance of either of these printers could be further optimized, their current capabilities, broad availability, low cost of operation, high throughput, and simplicity offer great promise for rapid development and widespread use of standardized microdevices for numerous applications, including gamete quality evaluation and “laboratory-on-a-chip” applications in support of aquatic germplasm repositories.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":37111,"journal":{"name":"Micro and Nano Engineering","volume":"24 ","pages":"Article 100277"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2590007224000406/pdfft?md5=37334bdc422b34d72765c80fe269e820&pid=1-s2.0-S2590007224000406-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141848763","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, there are limited detailed reports in the literature regarding the use of DFRs for the fabrication of microfluidic channels or other micropatterns (i.e., posts) on thin and flexible substrates.

To demonstrate the versatility of the method, three different DFRs were used on ultra-thin (30 μm), flexible, single-sided copper-clad polyimide substrates.

Depending on the nature of the resist film, this contrast may be based on intrinsic or photo- or radiation-induced differential solubility between the imaged and non-imaged part of the resist film in fine art lithography, photolithography, and radiation lithography, respectively, or pressure driven flow and confinement of resist in imprint lithography, or thermodynamically driven phase separation of resist constituents in directed self-assembly lithography. This contrast forms the basis of the printed image and ultimately derives from the forces that underlie the old chemist's rule: “Oil and water do not mix.” Crucially, to create this contrast, the resist film must transform a two-dimensional image of the mask or template into a three-dimensional relief image on the substrate in a process that is highly non-linear. By creating the contrast in this manner, the resist film serves as a compact imaging system that senses, records, stores, and displays the mask image. Additionally, the resist film must maintain its structural and mechanical integrity to “resist” and withstand the harshness of other post-imaging processes such as etching, ion implantation, electroplating, etc. Following all necessary post-imaging processes, the resist film must be stripped or be left and incorporated into the final device. A versatile material that serves a multiplicity of functions and is operational in many dimensions is not only amazing but also forms the irreducible essence of lithography. By drawing on fundamental, theoretical, and experimental studies of molecular processes involved in lithographic resist imaging, this review paper explains how the resist film performs the above essential functions.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":37111,"journal":{"name":"Micro and Nano Engineering","volume":"24 ","pages":"Article 100280"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2590007224000431/pdfft?md5=64a88eb83a6bf8e1b3f71c8570b31d75&pid=1-s2.0-S2590007224000431-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141992928","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The findings indicate that increasing magnification leads to a decrease in apparent spatial uniformity, indicative of effects regarding the inclusion in analysis of families of finer pores. In almost all cases, NNI values show higher uniformity compared to a fully random scenario. Additionally, it is found that plasma etching does not have significant effects on spatial uniformity introducing only a slight uniformity in pore centroid arrangement, reflected in a small NNI increase.

This research was carried out through the measurement of acetone concentration. First, we compared the concentration classification ability between the proposed and conventional methods and determined that the proposed method of analyzing vibration spectral changes using the CNN model can provide higher measurement sensitivity than the conventional measurement method of observing resonance properties changes and comparing the values for each measurement condition. This result shows that CNN-based spectral analysis is effective for the vibration spectra of in-liquid measurements. Next, gradient-weighted class activation mapping (Grad-CAM) was applied to verify which frequency bands are important for concentration classification in CNN model decision-making. The vibration states in these frequency bands were analyzed in terms of oscillation modes. This analysis revealed significant oscillation modes of the nanomechanical resonator in the liquid environment. Notably, in addition to the resonance states utilized in the conventional method, several other oscillation modes were found to be significant for measurements. This finding suggests that these oscillation modes may be highly sensitive for measurements in liquid environments.
