Fabrication of Microfluidic Devices for the study of Ion transport through Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 20 May 2016
Abstract
Studying the transport of ions through single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) necessitate the fabrication of a fluidic setup integrating carbon nanotubes. In this article, we report on the development of a simple fabrication protocol of SWCNTs fluidic devices. This protocol allows an excellent control of the system features and of the experimental conditions compared with previously published protocols. Our protocol based on the use of the popular SU-8, the preferred photoresist for the fabrication of high-aspect-ratio patterns, allows one to prepare sealed microfluidic devices incorporating one or several tens of individual carbon nanotubes of length between 20 and 80 µm.
