Silicon Nitride Chips and Nanopores
Silicon Nitride chips and nanopores.
- 5mm x 5mm square chips.
Newly available are our 5mm x 5mm square chips with two different window sizes to choose from, 15µm x 15µm windows or 25µm x 25µm windows. The chips consist of a silicon support (320µm thick) and the window is located in the precise centre. The membranes are available in 10nm or 20nm thick LPVCD Silicon Nitride. Currently these are only available as intact membrane.
5mm x 5mm chips are more robust, easier to handle and (with a little modification) can be used with the existing range of flow cells (please contact us for details).
Silicon Nitride chips and nanopores.
- 3mm diameter circular chips.
Our 3mm diameter circular chips are available with two different window sizes, 25µmx 25µm windows or 50µm x 50µm windows. The chips consist of a silicon support (200µm thick) and the window is located in the precise centre. The membranes are 20nm thick LPVCD Silicon Nitride and are available as intact membranes (undrilled) or predrilled with nanopore(s).
Our state of the art FIB facilities allow us to batch produce nanopores and make them available to researchers at a very reasonable price.
Currently available are:
Our Tetraflow™ flow cell is designed specifically to fit these chips, ensuring that your chip is safe and easy to handle.
