CaptHindsightjust needs a system to deposit photopolymers14:56
chris_99so they've essentially strapped a laser onto a micropositioner, and they're using that to do the drawing right?14:57
CaptHindsightin that ^^ example yes, and the microscope is used to view it15:02
CaptHindsightthey are probably using a microscope objective with the laser to focus down to ~1um15:02
chris_99neat, i guess the stepper motors don't need to be very precise, would something like microstepping a 0.9 deg stepper be enough?15:03
CaptHindsightwith what screw pitch?15:03
xtalmathin a related paper, they achieve 500nm http://diyhpl.us/~bryan/papers2/paperbot/High%20resolution,%20low%20cost%20laser%20lithography%20using%20a%20Blu-ray%20optical%20head%20assembly.pdf15:05
chris_99sorry what do you mean, my mechanical knowledge is poor, i was thinking you could attach a stepper to the micropositioners knobs, via some sort of timing belt15:05
CaptHindsight1mm pitch / 360 = ~2.8um per step with ideal screw15:05
xtalmathCaptHindsight: I have stepper motor with 2000 or so steps per turn (gearing)15:06
xtalmaththey were the cheapes in the local electronics store, bad buy btw, because they are slow (although I used too low a voltage)15:06
xtalmathCaptHindsight: also, id use 0.5mm pitch M3 or smth15:07
CaptHindsightxtalmath: chris_99 is wondering how this all works, step rates, screw pitch, etc.15:08
chris_99yeah im confused how you attach a stepper to the micropositioner knobs15:09
-!- nmz787_w [c0373729@gateway/web/freenode/ip.192.55.55.41] has joined ##hplusroadmap15:09
xtalmathchris_99: the stepper motor is coupled to a threaded rod, and a nut on the rod is attached to the stage15:09
nmz787_wxtalmath: this offers better resolution http://diyhpl.us/~bryan/papers2/optics/photolithography/High%20resolution,%20low%20cost%20laser%20lithography%20using%20a%20Blu-ray%20optical%20head%20assembly.pdf15:09
gradstudentbotHaha, undergrads.15:09
CaptHindsightchris_99: screw pitch is the distance between threads15:09
chris_99ah15:10
xtalmathnmz787_w: they are identical?15:10
CaptHindsighthttp://www.boltscience.com/images/screw3.gif15:10
CaptHindsightchris_99: so say it's 1mm pitch then one turn moves the nut on the crew 1mm15:10
CaptHindsightcrew/screw15:10
-!- erasmus [~esb@unaffiliated/erasmus] has quit [Quit: Namaste]15:11
CaptHindsightand if you have 1000 steps per rev then 1mm / 1000 is the distance per step15:11
xtalmathchris_99: the timing belt should work in theory15:11
chris_99i'm still slightly confused, are they using a standard micropositioner such as http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/261960369755?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT which has knobs you turn, i can't see how you'd attach a screw to that?15:11
kanzurextalmath: http://diyhpl.us/~bryan/papers2/optics/photolithography/15:11
kanzurextalmath: and http://diyhpl.us/~bryan/papers2/microfluidics/15:11
nmz787_wxtalmath: no, the one i just posted doesn't use a microscope, it uses a bluray writer optical sled15:12
xtalmathnmz787_w: I posted both15:12
xtalmathkanzure: yeah, its where I originally read them15:12
kanzurextalmath: for good projects i have budget available, btw15:12
kanzuregood open-source hardware projects15:12
CaptHindsightchris_99: they don't list it but it's probably s crew type positioner15:12
nmz787_wxtalmath: oh, it doesn't show up in the logs for today\15:12
xtalmathkanzure: that sounds interesting, but I don't know how that would work with taxes here?15:13
chris_99CaptHindsight, so theoretically you could pull off the knobs and attach a screw maybe?15:13
nmz787_wchris_99: that ebay link you posted has the screws hidden15:13
xtalmathkanzure: perhaps later, I will first get acquainted with my 3d printer I just got15:13
gradstudentbotJust wait until the ethics review board never hears about this.15:13
chris_99nmz787_w, hidden where? behind the knobs or..15:14
xtalmathkanzure: I may remind you of your offer at a later date, but instead of $ specific tool like say a micrometer stage...15:14
CaptHindsightchris_99: if you have machine tools you can make just about anything15:14
kanzurextalmath: nah i mean we need good open-source hardware projects for things like photolithography15:14
kanzurenot just "adding to xtalmath's tool collection"15:14
xtalmathkanzure: yes, that is how I understood it15:15
kanzurek15:15
xtalmaththe former15:15
xtalmathlol15:15
xtalmathyour not santa ofc15:15
gradstudentbotOh yeah, isn't that already a part on the biobrick registry?15:15
nmz787_wchris_99: hidden inside the positioner15:15
xtalmathyour saying something similar like people who buy linux dev's peripherals in exchange for FOSS driver support15:15
nmz787_wchris_99: presumbaly the screw is co-axial with the knobs... but they could be connected by a gear or something i suppose15:16
chris_99mmm15:16
CaptHindsightchris_99: http://www.manualpositioning.com/pic/other/XYZ_Positioning_System_with_Large-Area_Platform.jpg  you might be thinking of one of these15:17
kanzurextalmath: kinda15:17
xtalmathnmz787_w: I have a micro milling machine, and it has a positioning stage, I wondered if the stage would be precise enough for the microlithography?15:17
CaptHindsightbut they are also available motorized with lead screws, ball screws, linear servos or piezos15:17
xtalmathbasically I might just attach a bluray optics assembly and try on the milling machine, without decomposing the milling machine15:18
chris_99it's a shame the paper isn't more specific on what they used15:18
nmz787_wxtalmath: with the right feedback it could be... something like optical feedback or interferometry15:18
kanzurenmz787_w: why were we looking at optics stuff for that? fenn pointed out that the original plan was "use the same optics from the bluray drive"15:19
xtalmathnmz787_w I was thinking scanner linear CIS sensor, they are routinely 1000fps to 10000fps15:19
CaptHindsightchris_99: yeah, it's obvious to anyone that builds automation systems or machines15:19
xtalmathcoupled with video lenses15:19
chris_99ah heh15:19
nmz787_wkanzure: optics for feedback... basically just a microscope pointed at a decent-enough quality grid reticle (I was thinking a laser printed grid would be fine)15:20
CaptHindsightchris_99: but it's not a simple howto for someone new to the tech15:20
xtalmaththey only made linear traces though, so that inherently does not suffer from potential backlash in a stage15:20
nmz787_wkanzure: also at some point we didn't think to use a bluray drive15:20
kanzureno way it was for feedback. i don't remember that being the reason.15:20
kanzureyes i think it was because we decided against bluray but why?15:20
xtalmathI am curious why not the blu ray?15:20
kanzuremaybe we just forgot that we had a good solution15:21
xtalmaththey are mandated to have a specific small maximum spot size15:21
nmz787_wi never thought anyone decided against bluray15:21
xtalmathaccording to blu ray spec15:21
kanzureif "quality control" was the reason that we stopped then fuck that?15:21
nmz787_wi think the interest died down though when I was trying to talk about that15:21
kanzureright, fenn died15:21
kanzurebut that's not the reason15:21
kanzuremicroscope optics were being attempted for some reason15:21
nmz787_wyou wanted a webscope15:21
xtalmathuh fenn is still alive?15:21
kanzurextalmath: death is just a state of mind15:21
CaptHindsightwhat's the blueray for? polymerizing a resist or?15:21
nmz787_wand I think i found that english open source scope15:21
nmz787_wyep15:22
kanzureCaptHindsight: laser cutter, polymerization if good photoresist found, etc.15:22
xtalmathkanzure: I guess you were thinking of fuck direct write, lets couple an LCD with microscopes?15:22
nmz787_wxtalmath: you can still see lead screw wobble in those lines though15:22
kanzurewas this stuff http://diyhpl.us/laser_etcher/laser_etcher/15:22
kanzurextalmath: no, we were trying to keep things simple15:22
gradstudentbotMy matlab crashed.15:23
CaptHindsightchris_99: this type uses a piezo motor  http://www.pi-usa.us/products/images/300x250_images/XYZ_nanopositioning_stages-P611_3.jpg15:23
CaptHindsightchris_99: for nanopositioning15:23
nmz787_wxtalmath: at some point you can start to see interpixel deadzone noise, unless you overrepresent your feature with more than one pixel (need more mag, so get less field of view)15:23
xtalmathI wish a miniature version of the laser system in laser printers were possible for microlithography15:23
nmz787_wand then you need imaging again to stick FOVs15:23

chris_99interesting, i think i've seen some AFM stuff, where they use piezos CaptHindsight15:23
xtalmathnmz787_w I see the wobble but not sure what you refer to with deadzone noise15:24
xtalmathnmz787_w oh you mean for coupling LCD15:24
gradstudentbotBlah, why won't they just kick me out.15:24
kanzurep. sure we've had this conversation before, we were telling you nope about the "interpixel deadzone" stuff15:24
kanzure19:11 < fenn> "interpixel noise" doesn't seem like a good excuse; you can blur the lines between pixels anyway15:25

kanzure19:13 < kanzure> page 2 figure 215:25
xtalmathyeah just blur15:25
kanzure19:14 < fenn> kanzure: that's the answer to the problem he's proposing, not the problem15:25
kanzureer... well.. whatever.15:25
CaptHindsightadd a femtosecond laser for two photon polymerization15:26
xtalmaththis channel got lively15:26
CaptHindsightor use two visible light lasers that interfere to make features down to ~150nm15:27
nmz787_wkanzure: that isn't the paper i'm referring to with the inter-pixel noise... but yeah the solution is to over-magnify and use multiple pixels for a single smallest-feature you want15:27
fenni'm not dead15:28
kanzureyou were dead at the time15:28
fenni was in the shower hrmph15:28
kanzuresame thing15:28
xtalmathIm guessing this is a case of analysis paralysis. the people who write these papers didnt spend years to optimize this specific setup, they just tried a novel idea, and used their limited resources to report on feasibility, with a heads up of some imperfections of their techniques15:28
xtalmathhalf a year later they are doing a different project15:29
fenni first heard about vinay gupta because the hexayurt was similar to things i was working on at the time15:29
fennand he kept popping up everywhere15:29
kanzurebut what else after hexayurt15:29
fennhe was on open manufacturing15:29
nmz787_widk if this is the exact one, but it was on this site http://www.intelligentmp.com/Downloads/Technical%20Papers/SF-100%20Greyscale%20Paper.pdf15:29
xtalmathI think of hobbyists take either system like the direct write or the LCD, without being forced to investigate a completely different thing, they can perfect on the setup15:29
nmz787_wfrom this list http://www.intelligentmp.com/downloadstechnicalpapers.html15:29
kanzureah okay, then that is why i remember seeing lots of him15:30
kanzure"funny, i don't remember looking up hexayurt that often...."15:30
chris_99CaptHindsight, oh earlier i was going to ask you i was reading https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustic_cryptanalysis it says 'In March 2015, it was made public that some inkjet printers using ultrasonic heads can be read back using high frequency MEMS microphones ...' which i've not been able to find any sources for, but i found some information that the drive frequency for one of epsons piezo heads is 8kHz, is around that15:30
chris_99frequency fairly common?15:30
CaptHindsightxtalmath: by hobbyists you mean reprapists??15:30
fennraping the replicators15:30
xtalmathCaptHindsight: hah15:31
kanzure#notallreprapists15:31
fenni'm not a hobbyist, but...15:31
fenni do enjoy trains15:31
kanzureyou probably don't qualify as a hobbyist15:32
xtalmathchris_99: I think they mean that ultrasonic microphones can recover what is privately being printed, like EM emissions from CRT tubes before15:32
CaptHindsightchris_99: lots of assumptions would have to be made15:32
xtalmathsounds reasonable to me15:32
CaptHindsightchris_99: plus you have 0-180 nozzles up to 8x firing at the same time15:33
fenni went to the scrap yard yesterday and got a big square tube of steel, and this seems like a repeatable exercise15:33
fenni was worried about the availability of cheap materials in the area15:33
gradstudentbotWho's in charge of the master mix?15:33
xtalmathfor a single pixel (or dot in printer terminology), the piezo does 1 oscillation (i.e. impulsive)? or multiple (thermal expansion)?15:34
CaptHindsightxtalmath: depends on the mode15:34
xtalmathCaptHindsight: an inkjet printer can have 180 nozzles?15:34
kanzurecan have many nozzles15:34
CaptHindsightone pixel could be made of 6 drops that combine in flight15:35
xtalmathCYMK?15:35
kanzurefenn: you should make up a shopping cart for SCOEW/EWOD things if you want to play around with that eventually. i'm willing to pay even if the parts sit around for a while.15:35
CaptHindsightxtalmath: Epsons have 180 nozzles per channel and up to 8 channels in one head15:35
kanzurefenn: or for bluray laser cutter stuff15:35
fennmy mind is currently in "acquire basic fabrication technology infrastructure" mode15:36
kanzureprobably there's lots of cheapo "bag of 1 million LCDs" on ebay15:36
xtalmathhmm, ok, but I still think simply plotting the recording as amplitude, while syncing retrace will give a discernible image15:36
kanzurefenn: may i ask why?15:36
chris_99what's a nozzle defined as CaptHindsight15:36

CaptHindsightchris_99: a nozzle is where the ink gets push out of the head by a piezo or thermal actuator (or Mems)15:39

fennIn moral evaluation a distinction must be made between strictly "therapeutic" manipulation, which aims to cure illnesses caused by genetic or chromosome anomalies (genetic therapy), from manipulation "altering" the human genetic patrimony.20:41
fennA curative intervention, which is also called ‘genetic surgery,’ ‘will be considered desirable in principle, provided its purpose is the real promotion of the personal well-being of the individual, without damaging his integrity or worsening his condition of life.20:41
fennOn the other hand, interventions which are not directly curative, the purpose of which is 'the production of human beings selected according to sex or other predetermined qualities,' which change the genotype of the individual and of the human species, 'are contrary to the personal dignity of the human being, to his integrity and to his identity.20:41
fennTherefore they can be in no way justified on the pretext that they will produce some beneficial results for humanity in the future,' 'no social or scientific usefulness and no ideological purpose could ever justify an intervention on the human genome unless it be therapeutic, that is its finality must be the natural development of the human being.'20:41
