Adsorption of bovine serum albumin on amorphous carbon surfaces studied with dip pen nanolithography

This article reports the use of dip pen nanolithography (DPN) for the study of adsorption of bovine serum albumin (BSA) proteins on amorphous carbon surfaces; tetrahedral amorphous carbon (t-aC) and silicon doped hydrogenated amorphous carbon (a-C:H:Si). Contact angle study shows that the BSA proteins reduce the contact angle on both carbon materials. We also noticed that the drop volume dependence is consistent with a negative line tension, i.e. due to an attractive protein/surface interaction. The DPN technique was used to write short-spaced (100 nm) BSA line patterns on both samples. We found a line merging effect, stronger in the case of the a-C:H:Si material. We discuss possible contributions from tip blunting, scratching, cross-talk between lever torsion and bending and nano-shaving of the patterns. We conclude that the observed effect is caused in large measure by the diffusion of BSA proteins on the amorphous carbon surfaces. This interpretation of the result is consistent with the contact angle data and AFM force curve analysis indicating larger tip/surface adhesion and spreading for the a-C:H:Si material. We conclude by discussing the advantages and limitations of DPN lithography to study biomolecular adsorption in nanoscale wetting environments.     

A resistless photolithography method for robust markers and electrodes

We describe a method of resistless photolithography using laser for the fabrication of microscopic markers and electrodes. A single shot of laser (355 nm, 100 mJ) is used to induce local surface melting and thus transfer a pattern from the mask (TEM grid) on to the surface of silicon. With a silicon substrate pre-coated with a layer of phosphorus, the laser pulse selectively produces doped regions that are highly conducting. The electrodes and markers thus obtained are robust and can withstand harsh chemical treatments. The utility of the marker for dip-pen nanolithography is illustrated by performing gold colloid nanopatterning.     

Improved high-k stacks with chemical oxide interfacial layer by DPN/PNA treatment

A decoupled plasma nitridation (DPN) with post nitridation annealing (PNA) treatment method was introduced to improve the performances of MOS devices with high-k (HK)-last/gate-last integration scheme and chemical oxide interface layer (IL). By introducing N to form HfSiON, it was found that DPN + PNA treatments could provide smaller equivalent oxide thickness (EOT) for both nMOS and pMOS devices. It was also found that we could achieve the best overall device performance for the HK-last/gate-last integration scheme with a chemical oxide IL by introducing nitrogen gas with low percentage content during DPN followed by high temperature PNA.
