Engineering A Fabrication and Measurement Method for a Flexible Ferroelectric Element Based on Van Der Waals Heteroepitaxy Jie Jiang*1, Yugandhar Bitla*2, Qiang-xiang Peng1, Yi-Chun Zhou1, Ying-Hao Chu3 1Key Laboratory of Low Dimensional Materials and Application Technology of Ministry of Education, Xiangtan University, 2Department of Physics, Indian Institute of Science, 3Department of Materials Science and Engineering, National Chiao Tung University In this paper, we present a protocol to directly grow an epitaxial yet flexible lead zirconium titanate memory element on muscovite mica. Chemistry Fizzy Extraction of Volatile Organic Compounds Combined with Atmospheric Pressure Chemical Ionization Quadrupole Mass Spectrometry Hao-Chun Yang1, Cheng-Hao Chang1, Pawel L. Urban1 1Department of Applied Chemistry, National Chiao Tung University Fizzy extraction is a new laboratory technique for analysis of volatile and semivolatile compounds. A carrier gas is dissolved in the liquid sample by applying overpressure and stirring the sample. The sample chamber is then decompressed. The analyte species are liberated to the gas phase due to effervescence. Bioengineering Preparation of Silicon Nanowire Field-effect Transistor for Chemical and Biosensing Applications Jennifer Yun-Shin Wu1, Chih-Heng Lin2, Mei-Huei Feng1, Chien-Hung Chen2, Ping-Chia Su1, Po-Wen Yang2, Jian-Ming Zheng2, Chang-Wei Fu2, Yuh-Shyong Yang1,2 1Institute of Molecular Medicine and Bioengineering, National Chiao Tung University, 2Department of Biological Science and Technology, National Chiao Tung University We describe key steps for biosensing by using polysilicon nanowire field-effect transistors, including the preparation of the device and the immobilization and confirmation of a DNA molecular probe on the nanowire surface, as well as conditions for DNA sensing.
