Patent number: 11879848Abstract: A method for fabricating a composite film structure, the method includes determining a desired morphology for a metallic layer of the composite film structure, selecting a first metal substrate based on the determining, transferring a graphene layer onto the first metal substrate, depositing the metallic layer on the graphene layer to achieve the desired morphology, and removing the first metal substrate from the graphene and the deposited metallic layer to form the composite film structure. A surface energy difference between the first metal substrate and the deposited metallic layer results in the desired morphology of the metallic layer.Type: GrantFiled: December 3, 2021Date of Patent: January 23, 2024Assignee: The Regents of the University of CaliforniaInventors: Aliaksandr Zaretski, Darren J.

Publication number: 20020108869Abstract: A device to facilitate electrophysiological measurements of a biological material comprises a plate having a plurality of wells that each have an end. At least some of the wells have a hole formed in the end, and the holes are configured to receive an individual cell such that a high resistance seal is formed between the cell and the end. A chamber is disposed adjacent the plate and is in fluid communication with each of the holes. A common electrode is disposed in the chamber, and a plurality of well electrodes are configured to be positioned within the wells. In this way, a voltage gradient may be created across cell membranes of cells that are positioned within the holes so that electrophysiological measurements of the cells may be taken.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 9, 2001Publication date: August 15, 2002Inventor: Alex Savtchenko
