Functionalization of Pyrolyzed Carbon Structures for Bio-Nanoelectronics Platforms
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In this study, the surface-treatment of pyrolyzed carbon microelectrodes - which are otherwise chemically inert - for improving their attachment chemistry with double-stranded DNA molecular wires as part of a bio-nanoelectronics platform is investigated. Pyrolyzed carbon microelectrodes are fabricated using standard negative lithography procedures with SU-¬8 (10) negative-tone photoresist on a silicon wafer. These microelectrode structures are then pyrolyzed and converted to a form of conductive carbon that we refer to as PSU-8. Functionalization of the resulting pyrolyzed structures is done using oxygen plasma etching and the results confirmed with Fourier Transform Spectroscopy. Post-pyrolysis analysis using Electron Dispersion X-ray Spectroscopy (EDS) shows a decrease in oxygen content after pyrolysis and higher oxygen concentrations at the edges and location of defects. FTIR results confirm the presence of carboxyl and hydroxyl groups in both untreated pyrolyzed carbon (PSU-8) and plasma-treated PSU-8 structures.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
