Dr. Jim Greer
Tyndall National Institute

Dual Side-Gated Junction Field Effect Transistors with Split Drain

***Download presentation***

A novel Field Effect transistor has been designed and fabricated at Tyndall that allows different switching techiques to be investigated. The fabrication of the devices will allow the physics of the device to be fully investigated and compared with design simulations
Stephen Gilmartin
University of Limerick


The fabrication of novel thermal nanosensor structures using electon beam nanolithography

***Download presentation***

Scaling down the geometries of arrays of thermal sensors from microscale to sub-100nm geometries was the goal of this UL project. This was achieved using the extensive micro-scale facilities at Analog Devices in Limerick in collaboration with the e-beam facility at Tyndall

Queens University Belfast


Physicochemical characterisation of novel polymeric microneedle arrays  for drug delivery”

Presentation not available

Drug delivery through the skin by arrays of polymer microneedles is the main focus of this QUB research. Through NAP high precision silicon master microneedles were fabricated at Tyndall and used as masters for the polymer moulds
Dr. A. J. Robinson
Trinity College Dublin

Development of electrohydrodynamic ion-drag micropumps for microscale cooling systems"

***Download presentation***

A miniature pump capable of driving cooling fluids through a microfluidic device has been designed and fabricated in this TCD project. TCD researchers are investigating novel micropumps and the device design and fabrication was undertaken in Tyndall’s Microsystems fab
Dr. John Slater
Letterkenny Institute of Technology


“Improving the attachment efficiency and stability of DNA probes on gold electrodes"

***Download presentation***

An electrochemical DNA biosensor is under development at LYIT and one of the challenges is the variability in the electrodes used and pre-treatment and the chemistry of the probe attachment. Researchers from LYIT collaborated with Tyndall’s Life Science Interface team to investigate the issues involved in establishing a reproducible DNA biosensor
Dr. Richard Guinee
Cork Institute of Technology

Extended Experimental Testing of a Novel Correlation Diagnostic Tester Methodology for Transmission Line Fault Monitoring

***Download presentation***

Fault location and identification is a critical element in the monitoring of long transmission lines. CIT researchers have developed a novel technique for on-line monitoring of long transmission lines and used Tyndall’s extensive test facilities to verify the technique
Mikael Fernström
University of Limerick


Wireless Sensor Glove with Haptic Feedback for medical training

***Download presentation***

Researchers in UL have developed a medical training platform to simulate the application of epidural injections. In this project UL and Tyndall have developed a wireless glove that will be used to simulate real-life conditions for the medical trainee
