Designing Sensors and SEM Capsules
2015
In the spring and fall semesters of 2015, I had the privilege of being involved in some pretty cool research that was going on at Tech. One involve fabricating a wet-SEM capsule for in-situ analysis of liquid solutions (state preservation of precursor substance) in the high vacuum environment of a scanning electron microscope (SEM). The other was the development of an extremely energy-efficient, highly portable, and relatively cheap prototype noxious gas sensor with metal oxide-impregnated porous silicon.
