PF4k devices

These devices contain about 4000 different chambers, with 2 devices arranged per wafer.  Due to the large size of these devices, they are somewhat tricky to fabricate - if it's possible to get away with 1500 chambers, we suggest using the PC1k device designs (linked below).

PC1k devices

These devices contain about 1500 different chambers, with 5 devices arranged per wafer.  The chambers are arranged in 28 rows of 56 chambers each, with a pitch of 321 between rows and a pitch of 643 between chambers.

PS1.8K devices

These devices contain 1792 chambers in a 32x56 grid (NOTE: no longer compatible with microarray pins). The standard PS1.8k device mirrors PC1k in operation.

PS4block, PS8block

These multi-block devices contain 4 or 8 “cores” respectively to allow for parallel flow of distinct substrates to different parts of the chip.

Serpentine channel devices

These devices are designed to flow spectrally encoded beads into a linear serpentine array for imaging.  The imaging channel is about 55 microns wide by 55 microns tall with a sieve valve at the end, so it can be used to trap anything of around that size.  There are 3 outputs at the end, which can be used for rudimentary object sorting.

AZ50 XT valve height test devices

These devices contain a series of rounded valves ranging from 50 to 250 um wide and from 150 to 1225 um in length, and can be used to optimize rounded photoresist fabrication protocols.
