The technology is an elaboration on the canonical AFM probe, targeting added capacity to physically manipulate both adhesive and nonadhesive cells by fluid pressure controlled aspiration at the cantilever terminus.\u0026nbsp; We demonstrate a low stiffness design of a fully integrated fluidic probe.\u0026nbsp; This may be combined with the dynamic loading and high spatial resolution capabilities of any AFM system, as the design requires no modification to a mounting unit.\u0026nbsp; We developed three key microfabrication techniques to achieve this: a low stiffness (k \u0026lt; 100 pN\/nm) nano-fluidic cantilever via a thermally decomposable polynorborne sacrificial layer, fully integrated fluidic system that requires no modification to an AFM probe mount, and two micro to nano-fluidic interfaces for connecting the latter.\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EPhD Defense Presentation-\u0026nbsp;\u201cToward an Aspirating Force Probe: Microfabrication of a high sensitivity fluidic AFM probe\u201d- Kipp Schoenwald\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"\u201cToward an Aspirating Force Probe: Microfabrication of a high sensitivity fluidic AFM probe\u201d"}],"uid":"27917","created_gmt":"2015-08-18 09:00:49","changed_gmt":"2017-04-13 21:18:46","author":"Laura Paige","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2015-08-31T14:00:00-04:00","event_time_end":"2015-08-31T16:00:00-04:00","event_time_end_last":"2015-08-31T16:00:00-04:00","gmt_time_start":"2015-08-31 18:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2015-08-31 20:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2015-08-31 20:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"65448","name":"Bioengineering Graduate Program"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1788","name":"Other\/Miscellaneous"}],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78751","name":"Undergraduate students"},{"id":"78761","name":"Faculty\/Staff"},{"id":"174045","name":"Graduate students"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003ELaura Paige\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E404 385-6655\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}}}
