Our Support
MANA Foundry provides uniform research support from creating samples by nanofabrication to structural observation and characterization.
1. Nanofabrication Process
4-terminaled electrodes for the nanowires’ characteristic evaluation
Nanogap-electrode structure of which different material electrodes coexist
A substrate surface where holes have been patterned on by nanofabrication process
Single-crystal nanorods that have grown through the holes
FIB picking up a particular part of cut sample surface. This is one of the steps of TEM sample fabrication.
Silicon substrate that has been fabricated by FIB to form a periodic structure.
Wiring between electrodes by wire bonding using 30μm gold wires.
2. Structural Observation
SEM images of pattern fabrications: Anisotropy wet etching on Si substrate (left) and dry etching SiO2 substrate (right)
Measurement by AFM on surface of Sapphire single crystal consisting of 0.2nm tall atomic steps and flat and even terraces in atomic level.
