Custom chip development

Translate a workflow into geometry.

Begin with the sample, physical mechanism and readout. We then refine the architecture around your experimental constraints.

01

Requirements

Define sample, target, flow range, reagents and observation method.

02

Design

Select geometry, interfaces and materials for the intended experiment.

03

Fabricate

Produce and inspect the chip against the agreed design.

04

Deliver

Provide the device with the technical information needed to begin evaluation.
