Research Abstract
1. Carbon MEMS

Almost 45 years after the initial development of the fabrication processes which enabled MEMS technology to be the current state-of-the-art in miniaturization, the entire community is still sitting on a silicon-based material palette. Although the number of new applications is growing at a tremendous rate, researchers and industry are facing a challenging problem of material selection because of the low availability of alternatives. In more recent years, new materials such as polymers, photo curable resists, metal alloys and others have appeared to be used in conjunction with integrated circuit (IC) technology. Nevertheless, some of the more envisioning and promising applications (such as biosensors for life science, micro/nano electrochemical and chemical sensing devices, etc.) have not yet found suitable materials for their optimal fabrication.
The utilization of carboneous materials has already begun in the application fields as the widely different crystalline structures and morphologies of these materials enable different physical, chemical, mechanical, thermal and electrical uses, specially in life sciences applications because of its high biocompatibility.
Recent developments in C-MEMS (Carbon-MicroElectroMechanical Systems)and C-NEMS (Carbon-NanoElectroMechanical Systems) microfabrication techniques, based on the pyrolysis of patterned photoresist at different temperatures and at different ambient atmospheres, have been made at our lab.

2. Carbon MEMS microbattery

The Carbon MEMS (C-MEMS) microbattery project is developing advanced battery technologies for use in next-generation rechargeable batteries.
By using C-MEMS technology to create micro and nanoscale precision structures, the Professor Madou's group has been able to create electrodes that have an enormous surface area. The surface area enhancement will allow batteries to be created that have extremely high power ratings. Precision micro and nanofabrication of carbon enables unprecedented control over the exact shape of the electrodes within an electrochemical system. The group is currently integrating C-MEMS fabricated electrodes into batteries that are safer, have higher capacity, and are potentially cheaper than current state-of-the-art batteries. Prototype batteries have already been developed and tested.


3. Compact Disc (CD) Microfluidic Theranostic Systems and Animal Assays

For point-of-care diagnostics, an affordable portable platform that can automate and perform rapid molecular diagnostic tests is needed. The Madou Research Group is currently developing CD Microfluidic technologies that can be integrated into a fluidic platform for sample-to-answer diagnostic systems. The CD Microfluidic platform is a promising approach for the integration of multiple functions on the same substrate. On the CD platform, centrifugal force is utilized as a driving force for sample and reagent propulsion. Surface tension elegantly provides for a method of valving. The wide range of spin speeds and the flexible design of the microstructures on a plastic disc afford the integration of various analytical functions. Analytical functions that have been successfully implemented are: sample metering, sample splitting, separation of serum from whole blood, two-point-optimal sensor calibration, cell lysis, immuno-assays, etc.
Current work is concentrated on DNA extraction and purification from cells, DNA amplification and DNA hybridization arrays. In addition to DNA assays, animal assays using C. elegans may be used for drug testing and diagnostic applications.

4. Enhanced DNA Detection

The Madou Research Group is working on methods of enhancing DNA detection by increasing sensitivity, decreasing assay time. Fluid flow and amplification methods are being developed to reduce DNA assay times from hours to minutes, and hopefully, to seconds. Additionally, methods of electrical detection of DNA hybridization are being investigated. Conventional assays often rely on the detection of fluorescence from a molecular fluorophore. Electronic methods of detection of DNA that are being developed within the Madou Research Group allow detection of DNA hybridizatin without the expensive and bulky optics involved in conventional methods.


5. Polymer Actuators

Conducting polymers show great potentials as electro-mechanical actuator materials. The actuation mechanism in the case of redox polymers is based on the migration of ions in and out of the polymer during redox cycling. Among other polymers, Polypyrrole is a material of choice. Polypyrrole actuators in particular can generate a strain of 1%-3% under proper electrochemical
excitation, thereby generating a high stress (100-1000 times greater than a skeletal muscle). They require low voltage for actuation (1 V or less), are biocompatible, and operate ideally in liquid electrolytes (including biofluids). All these features make them very promising for biomedical applications. Our lab is currently working on responsive drug delivery applications of polymer actuators. We are making arrays of drug reservoirs covered with small polymer valves. A biosensor controls the opening and closing of the valves, and the required amount of drug is released. To minimize valve leakage and to simplify the fabrication of the polymer actuators. We are doing research on new polymer actuator array designs and alternative fabrication methods.
