Magnetic PDMS micro-pillars
In past decades, polymeric micropillar devices have gained a great deal of attention in micro and nano technology research as the result of their potential and practical usage in many applications. This project is going to deal with the process of how to fabricate the magnetic micropillars, from the beginning – the planning and design, improving the existing process, lithography to create the base silicon mold and then creating the PDMS pillars that contains nano magnetic particles of Fe_3 O_4, the process today is not efficient enough in terms of cost and time and we are wishing to improve it, in the end we will have a device with micro-pillars that can move correspondingly to external magnetic field which will help us to do many advanced experiments in the biology field like using the device for cell stimulation.

The project addresses instability in the dissolution of tantalum (Ta) anodes in hydrofluoric acid (HF), where hydrogen gas generated during the reaction becomes trapped in the solution, forming foam that disrupts the process and creates safety risks. Using the PRIZ Platform, a Functional Model of the system was developed. The model revealed that the HF solution is both the most functional and the most problematic component, leading to a physical contradiction: HF must interact with Ta anodes to enable dissolution, but must not retain the hydrogen gas produced during the reaction. Applying the PRIZ principle of Separation in Space, two reactor concepts were proposed: a spray interaction reactor, where HF is pumped to spray onto anodes placed above the solution, and a surface wetting reactor, where anodes are positioned at the top of the solution, allowing natural circulation and easy hydrogen release. Both designs eliminate foam formation and provide a stable, controllable, and safer dissolution process.
Chilled water is used for production equipment cooling. Suddenly pH of the water started to drop. The aim of the project is to analyze the issue, understand the root cause, and propose solutions to the problem.
