  • Ultradeep Fused Silica Glass Etching with an HF- Resistant Photosensitive Resist for Optical Imaging Applications
    Ultradeep fused silica glass etching with an HF- resistant photosensitive resist for optical imaging applications John M Nagarah and Daniel A Wagenaar Broad Fellows Program and Division of Biology California Institute of Technology 1200 E. California Blvd. MC 216-76 Pasadena, CA 91125 [email protected] [email protected] Abstract Microfluidic and optical sensing platforms are commonly fabricated in glass and fused silica (quartz) because of their optical transparency and chemical inertness. Hydrofluoric acid (HF) solutions are the etching media of choice for deep etching into silicon dioxide substrates, but processing schemes become complicated and expensive for etching times greater than 1 hour due to the aggressiveness of HF migration through most masking materials. We present here etching into fused silica more than 600 μm deep while keeping the substrate free of pits and maintaining a polished etched surface suitable for biological imaging. We utilize an HF-resistant photosensitive resist (HFPR) which is not attacked in 49% HF solution. Etching characteristics are compared for substrates masked with the HFPR alone and the HFPR patterned on top of Cr/Au and polysilicon masks. We used this etching process to fabricate suspended fused silica membranes, 8–16 μm thick, and show that imaging through the membranes does not negatively affect image quality of fluorescence microscopy of biological tissue. Finally, we realize small through-pore arrays in the suspended membranes. Such devices will have applications in planar electrophysiology platforms, especially where optical imaging is required. 1. Introduction Glass and fused silica are appealing materials for constructing microelectromechanical systems (MEMS), lab-on-a-chip, and microfluidic platforms due to their chemical inertness, biocompatibility, optical transparency, mechanical rigidity, high melting point, electrical insulation, gas impermeability, and ability to bond to silicon, glass, and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) [1-3].

Deptt. of Environmental Science, 2PVP College of Arts, Commerce and Science, Pravaranagar-Loni Dist. Ahemadnagar. 3Vice-Principal, Indira College of Commerce and Science, Pune 411033. ABSTRACT This research article aims to find the management of livelihood with the selected case study of Mulshi tahsil in Pune district. There are four villages selected through the purposive sampling method. However, information related to livelihood is collected from the 400 respondents which are selected through the accidental sampling method. Livelihood of the respective villages are purely depends on the agricultural activities. Although these villages are not so far from the Pune City but the development was very poor. The Japanese Cooperation support these villagers to earn the money from milk and allied agriculture activities but their benefits are limited to some class. Education, medical and economic filed in the selected villages are lagging behind the development of villagers. Therefore this study suggests that, there may be urgent attention for proper management of livelihood activities to give them opportunities to develop. Key Words- livelihood , agriculture, village, management. 1. Introduction Livelihood means of supporting one's existence, especially financially or vocationally; living: to earn a livelihood as a tenant farmer.

Hof 1 and Jana Abou Ziki 2,* 1 Department of Mechanical & Industrial Engineering, Concordia University, 1455 de Maisonneuve Blvd. West, Montreal, QC H3G 1M8, Canada; [email protected] 2 Bharti School of Engineering, Laurentian University, Sudbury, ON P3E 2C6, Canada * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +1-705-675-1151 (ext. 2296) Academic Editors: Hongrui Jiang and Nam-Trung Nguyen Received: 14 November 2016; Accepted: 3 February 2017; Published: 13 February 2017 Abstract: Glass micromachining is currently becoming essential for the fabrication of micro-devices, including micro- optical-electro-mechanical-systems (MOEMS), miniaturized total analysis systems (µTAS) and microfluidic devices for biosensing. Moreover, glass is radio frequency (RF) transparent, making it an excellent material for sensor and energy transmission devices. Advancements are constantly being made in this field, yet machining smooth through-glass vias (TGVs) with high aspect ratio remains challenging due to poor glass machinability. As TGVs are required for several micro-devices, intensive research is being carried out on numerous glass micromachining technologies. This paper reviews established and emerging technologies for glass micro-hole drilling, describing their principles of operation and characteristics, and their advantages and disadvantages. These technologies are sorted into four machining categories: mechanical, thermal, chemical, and hybrid machining (which combines several machining methods). Achieved features by these methods are summarized in a table and presented in two graphs. We believe that this paper will be a valuable resource for researchers working in the field of glass micromachining as it provides a comprehensive review of the different glass micromachining technologies.
