Our lab is located in the northeast corner of Harvard's Cambridge campus. See below for a map:
The lab was completed in the Spring of 2006 and consists of work stations equipped with power, network, compressed air, nitrogen, and vacuum. Additionally, there is a fume hood, 'wet' area for materials synthesis, and an environmentally controlled (air pressure, lighting, temperature) room for sensitive measurements.
The lab houses equipment for meso- and micro- fabrication, materials synthesis and characterization, rapid prototyping, high-speed and traditional videography, imaging, electronics prototyping, and real-time control. The following is a partial list of our equipment:
Excimer laser micromachining system (TeoSys, Inc)
InVision SR 3D printer (3D Systems)
Computer-controlled vacuum oven
Custom composite vacuum bagging fixtures
Versalaser VLS2.30 (Universal Laser Systems)
Convection oven with integrated vacuum (custom)
pco1200hs high-speed camera (Cooke Camera)
Real-time controller based upon the xPC toolbox (Matlab)
and the Q8 AD/DA board (Quanser Consulting)
Electronics prototyping and PCB assembly (Zephyrtronics, various)
Electronics testing (various)
Spin coater (G3-8 from Specialty Coating Systems)
Optical microscopy and imaging stations (Zeiss, Canon)
