Table 3. Thickness of PDMS films spun on glass substrates vs. PDMS substrates.
Percent PDMS | Mean thickness on glass (µm) | Mean thickness on PDMS (µm) | Increase in thickness from glass to PDMS (µm) | Percent increase in mean thickness from glass to PDMS |
100% | 12.8–13.1 | 14.3–14.6 | 1.3–1.6 | 11.3% |
50% | 7.8–8.0 | 8.7–9.2 | 0.9–1.3 | 14% |
17% | 1.48–1.74 | 1.68–1.92 | 0.07–0.30 | 11.6% |
All spins were done for 5 min at 2000 RPM at the given concentration. The values are given as 95% confidence intervals for a sample of three slides.
