Fabrication of Biohybrid Synapses

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The biohybrid synapses were fabricated on glass-ITO patterned substrates purchased from Xin Yan Technology Ltd. The size of the glass square substrates is 25 mm with patterned squares of ITO (20 ohm sq−1) of 10 mm covering each corner. Substrates were cleaned through sonication in IPA (Sigma-Aldrich, USA) for 20 min. Employing Kapton tape and using a PMMA master mask, 2 stripes connecting opposed ITO squares (with fixed width 5 mm) were traced for the deposition of the polymer mixture. PEDOT:PSS (Hereaus, Clevios PH 1000) aqueous solution was prepared by adding 6 vol.% ethylene glycol (Sigma-Aldrich, USA) to increase the PEDOT:PSS conductivity, 0.1 vol.% dodecylbenzene sulfonic acid (Sigma-Aldrich, USA) as a surfactant, and 1 vol.% (3-glycidyloxypropyl)trimethoxysilane (Sigma-Aldrich, USA) as a crosslinking agent to improve mechanical stability. PEDOT:PSS solution was spun on the selected areas of the substrate at 1000 rpm for 2 min and baked at 120 °C for 20 min. Before operation the devices were conditioned at least 20 min in PBS solution, in order to avoid swelling effects during electrical measurements.

PEDOT:PSS Thin Film Formation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A solution of poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) doped with poly(styrene sulfonate), PEDOT:PSS (H.C. StarckClevios PH500), was spun onto the silicon substrate with pillars substrate so that an estimated film thickness d ~ 80 nm was achieved. The PEDOT:PSS solution was previously doped with ethylene glycol (Sigma Aldrich) to enhance its electrical conductivity and dodecyl benzene sulfonic acid (DBSA) surfactant (Sigma Aldrich) to improve film forming. After the spinning the device was baked on a hotplate at 140°C for 60 min. Silver metal contacts over the conductive PEDOT:PSS film were realized at a distance of ~10 mm to be used as source and drain contacts.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
