Find, Build, And Export Information For 3d Printing Of Your Favorite Molecules And Crystal Structures At Two Dedicated Websites, Paul R. Destefano, Peter Moeck
Student Research Symposium
As 3D printers require instructions, the Nano-Crystallography Group at Portland State University is creating two websites (http://nanocrystallography.org/3dconvert/ and http://nanocrystallography.research.pdx.edu/3d-print-files/convert/) where such instructions are created, interactively, for the atomic arrangements of virtually all known molecules and crystals.
We will prepare a "pipeline" into which crystallographic information enters from two curated open access crystallographic databases, is manipulated to create the desired 3D models, and then is exported in either STL format (the standard for monochrome 3D printing) or VRML/X3D (the ISO successor to STL). The two aforementioned databases are the North-American mirror of the Crystallography Open Database (http://nanocrystallography.org) …

Student Research Symposium
The development of a novel blood glucose sensor is realized through construction of a homemade plasma coating system and utilization of semiconductor manufacturing processes in a small scale cleanroom environment. Photolithography, plasma sputtering, chemical etching and thin film measurement technologies are used in the medical sensor fabrication process. General process flow will be discussed, and system design and the plasma sputtering process will be presented as it is achieved by the system currently under development.
