Pushing the limits of nanofabrication! Get a personally chosen picture/painting/text/photograph permanently etched into the SAPPHIRE layer of a 1 cm x 1 cm sapphire coated, silicon chip. The sapphire serves to protect the etching from oxidation and makes an iridescent deep purple to sea foam green color finish on the chip surface (you can choose the color!). You will receive the chip, mounted in a lucite, matted frame along with a high resolution scanning electron microscope print of the etching on glossy photographic paper! Each piece comes with a signed certificate of authenticity and a personalized thank you from me! International backers please add $15 for shipping. Due to the intricacies of both sapphire deposition and sapphire etching (remember this is the second hardest natural material known to man) there are a limited number of chips that will be produced at this price!
