Microfabrication technologies in dielectrophoresis applications-A review

Rodrigo Martinez Duarte

DEP is an established technique for particle manipulation. Although first demonstrated in the 1950s, it was not until the development of miniaturization techniques in the 1990s that DEP became a popular research field. The 1990s saw an explosion of DEP pub ...

Fabrication of Free-Standing Plasmonic Nanoantennas with Application for Optical Break Junctions

Olivier Martin, Christian Santschi, Banafsheh Abasahl

We report the fabrication of plasmonic nanoantennas with dimensions in the 200 - 300 nm range, suspended across a nano-undercut, which will be used for the investigation of the optical properties of break junctions. Nanochannels, fabricated using e-beam li ...
