Fabrication of a 3D Nanoscale Crossbar Circuit by Nanotransfer-Printing Lithography.
Summary of "Fabrication of a 3D Nanoscale Crossbar Circuit by Nanotransfer-Printing Lithography."
Nanotransfer-printing lithography simplifies the fabrication of a 3D nanoscale crossbar circuit. Gold nanowires 100 nm in width and with 100 nm spacing are printed onto a polymer layer of electrically switchable, LiClO(4)-doped poly[2-methoxy-5-(2'-ethylhexyloxy)-p-phenylene vinylene] mixed with an epoxy. The transfer process can be repeated to obtain a multilayer nanoscale crossbar structure. This process paves the way toward fabricating 3D circuits with ultrahigh device density and neuromorphic architectures.

Medical and Biotech [MESH] Definitions
Anesthesia, Closed-circuit
Inhalation anesthesia where the gases exhaled by the patient are rebreathed as some carbon dioxide is simultaneously removed and anesthetic gas and oxygen are added so that no anesthetic escapes into the room. Closed-circuit anesthesia is used especially with explosive anesthetics to prevent fires where electrical sparking from instruments is possible.
Nanotechnology
The development and use of techniques to study physical phenomena and construct structures in the nanoscale size range or smaller.
Collodion
A nitrocellulose solution in ether and alcohol. Collodion has a wide range of uses in industry including applications in the manufacture of photographic film, in fibers, in lacquers, and in engraving and lithography. In medicine it is used as a drug solvent and a wound sealant.
Dental Technicians
Individuals responsible for fabrication of dental appliances.
