Fabrication and characterization of nanofluidic devices for DNA optical mapping
25 Feb 2021Nanofluidic lab-on-a-chip devices for the analysis of single DNA molecules were fabricated and characterized using FIB-SEM. Direct FIB nanopatterning of silicon master stamps allows fast prototyping of nanochannels of different shapes, cross sections and depths.
In this application note, ZEISS demonstrates how the Crossbeam can be an extremely useful tool for research in the field of nanofluidics and single molecule detection.

Electron MicroscopyElectron microscopes (EM) are used to create high-resolution images of samples at the nanoscale by means of an accelerated beam of electrons as a source of illumination. Types of electron microscope include scanning electron microscopes (SEM), transmission electron microscopes (TEM), scanning transmission electron microscopes (STEM) and cryo-electron microscopes. Focused ion beam (FIB) microscopes are useful for modifying or milling a sample surface with nanometer precision, as well as imaging.
