Dr. Seok’s Design and Advanced Manufacturing Laboratory includes 600 ft^2 room for R&D located inside Arkansas Bioscience Institute, A-State campus. The laboratory is equipped with various of fundamental instrumentation such as lab tables, shelves, sinks, lab gas and water lines, compressed air lines, certified hood, dark room and safety equipment.  The lab can be watched/monitored by students, researchers or faculty through large observation windows.  Last, ABI building itself (including many of research  labs) is isolated from noise and vibration to prevent interference of sensing or measurement. 

MAJOR EQUIPMENT: 

• Numerical Simulation and Finite Element Analysis: 

  • Several PC/Workstations integrating Matlab/Simulink, COMSOL, MINITAB, SolidWorks, and many other open sources.  

• Fabrication and Measurement: 

• Portable clean room, mask aligner, spin coater (SCS 6800), electron-beam evaporator, thin-film desposit sputter, ultrasonic cleaner, iso-temp stirring hotplate, vacuum chamber and pumps, Potentio/Galvanostats, muffle furnace, basic tool kits, and so on. 

• X-ray diffraction (XRD), optical microscopes (Olympus CX41), UV-VIS Spectrophotometers, power source meter (Keithley 2400), digital balances, multi-meters, solar simulator, etc. 

MICROSCOPY RESOURCES:

• Atomic Force Microscope (AFM) in Dr. Hossain's Lab, accessible as collaborator.  

• Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) in Arkansas Biosciences Institute (ABI), as a power user and trainer.
