<BLOCKQUOTE><FONT FACE="Verdana"><FONT SIZE=1><B><FONT COLOR="#00af00">Ø
</FONT></B>Interdigitated Microsensor Electrodes (IMEs) are
inert, array microelectrodes formed from patterned conductors on
an insulating substrate chip. They are designed for the
simultaneous interrogation of the electrical, electrochemical and
optical properties of thin polymeric films and coatings, for
applications in microelectrochemistry, for
electrical/electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and for
chemical and biological sensor development.</FONT></FONT></BLOCKQUOTE>
<BLOCKQUOTE><FONT FACE="Verdana"><FONT SIZE=1><B><FONT COLOR="#00af00">Ø
</FONT></B>Microfabricated from magnetron sputter-deposited gold
, e-gun vapor-deposited platinum, or conductive indium tin oxide
(ITO), these devices are supplied in three configurations or
designs; Monolith (M), Combined Differential (CD) and Full
Differential (FD), and as packaged (with attached leadwires and
encapsulated) or as un-packaged die.</FONT></FONT></BLOCKQUOTE>
<BLOCKQUOTE><FONT SIZE=1><FONT FACE="Verdana"><B><FONT COLOR="#00af00">Ø
</FONT></B>IME chips of gold, platinum or ITO are each available
with 5 microns, 10 microns, 15 microns, or 20 microns line and
space dimensions. The on-chip metallization (for gold and
platinum die only) is passivated with a 0.5 micron thick
insulating silicon nitride (Si<SUB>3</SUB>N<SUB>4</SUB>) coating
that is plasma etched to create a window that reveals the fingers
or digits of the device and the multiple bonding pads. </FONT></FONT>
</BLOCKQUOTE>
<BLOCKQUOTE><FONT SIZE=1><FONT FACE="Verdana"><B><FONT COLOR="#00af00">Ø
</FONT></B>In research and product development, these devices are
widely used for conductimetric, chemoresistive chemical and
biological sensors using electrically conducting
(electroconductive) polymers, for impedance sensors based on
Langmuir-Blodgett thin films, for studying environmental effects
on polymer thin films, and in modern micro-electrochemistry.</FONT></FONT></BLOCKQUOTE>
<BLOCKQUOTE><FONT FACE="Verdana"><FONT SIZE=1><B><FONT COLOR="#00af00">Ø
</FONT></B>Investigate the chemoresistive responses of
transducer-active, polymeric films in the same electrode
configuration, the same test environment, and on the same sample
film. Develop these devices into products where the application
requires a compact, durable and versatile chemical or biological
chemoresistive or electroanalytical sensor of low cost.</FONT></FONT></BLOCKQUOTE>

inorganic catalysts, organic binding compounds, and natural
biorecognition agents such as enzymes, antibodies and DNA. </FONT></FONT>

Microsensor Electrode (IME<SUP>TM</SUP>) is the tradename for a
family of devices developed by ABTECH. Also called interdigitated
arrays (IDAs), these devices are microfabricated (using
microelectronics fabrication techniques) to form patterns of
conductors deposited on an insulating substrate chip.</FONT></FONT></BLOCKQUOTE>
