Syent's pre-patterned substrates let you characterise organic semiconductors and build microelectrode arrays directly — no photolithography, no cleanroom access required.
Organic semiconductor research is bottlenecked by access to patterned test structures. Our substrates eliminate the photolithography step entirely — your material arrives, you deposit, you measure.
Metal contacts are pre-patterned by Syent. You bring your semiconductor — deposition, blade coating, or drop casting. No UV exposure, no developer, no resist.
Substrates ship probe-station ready with standard contact geometries. Connect your analyser and begin characterisation the same day your material arrives.
The semiconductor layer can be patterned by the user — by shadow mask, inkjet, or blade — without additional fab steps, enabling device-level testing with your own geometry.
Each substrate is optimised for a distinct characterisation goal. Both ship ready-to-use with pre-patterned gold contacts and full measurement documentation.
Pre-patterned gold source and drain contacts on glass, designed for standard OECT characterisation. Deposit your organic semiconductor across the channel and begin electrical testing immediately. Compatible with electrolyte-gated device configurations.
Pre-patterned microelectrode array substrate for building custom MEA devices. The electrode geometry is defined — users pattern the organic semiconductor or bioelectronic interface layer to their specification, enabling rapid MEA prototyping without photolithography.
Select the appropriate substrate for your characterisation goal — OECT for transistor measurements, MEA for electrode array work. Substrates ship within standard lead times.
Apply your organic semiconductor to the pre-defined channel or electrode region. Compatible with solution-processed deposition — blade coating, drop casting, or spin coating.
For defined device geometries, pattern the OSC layer using shadow masking or direct-write methods. No photoresist or UV exposure required — the substrate contacts are already in place.
Connect to your probe station or measurement system. The pre-patterned contacts are designed for standard characterisation setups — begin acquiring transconductance, on/off ratio, and transfer curves immediately.
The standard OSC characterisation workflow requires fabrication infrastructure most labs don't have. Our substrates move the bottleneck — giving researchers direct access to device-level measurements with only their own material and a deposition step.
Both product lines are compatible with standard probe station geometries and benchtop electrolyte configurations.
