Article Synopsis
  • - The use of microneedles (MN) for sensing biomarkers in interstitial fluid (ISF) can simplify self-diagnosis by eliminating the need for traditional blood sampling and analysis methods
  • - Despite their potential, current MN sensing technologies struggle with accuracy due to the low concentration of target molecules in ISF and the complexity of the extraction and measurement process
  • - A new swellable MN-mounted nanogap sensor was developed, allowing for rapid ISF absorption and in situ measurement of biomarkers, demonstrating effective detection of levodopa at low concentrations in both simulated and real skin environments

The possibility of forming niobium oxynitride through the nitridation of niobium oxide films in molecular nitrogen by rapid thermal processing (RTP) was investigated. Niobium films 200 and 500 nm thick were deposited via sputtering onto Si(100) wafers covered with a thermally grown SiO(2) layer 100 nm thick. These as-deposited films exhibited distinct texture effects.
