Using localized electrochemical deposition (LECD) as a mask-less direct writing methodology, metal shapes are printed. The electrochemical double-layer capacitance at ultra-high frequencies is hypothesized to cause a localized deposition and the effect of pulse frequency on the current density is modeled to predict the deposition resolution and rate of deposition. Experimental results confirm that the deposition resolution and efficiency of the LECD process increase with the increase of pulse frequency. Deposition resolution 80% smaller than the tool diameter is feasible in the LECD of nickel used with a ø 250 μm tool at 1 MHz pulsed power

Randomized COVID-19 Sampling Testing
In an ongoing effort to keep our campus safe, the University will implement new
Randomized COVID-19 Sampling Testing for all students, faculty, and staff
beginning February 15.
 
Since June of 2020 when testing became available, the University has provided
more than 2,400 free COVID-19 tests to our campus community. As a result of
everyone’s diligence and responsible actions, our campus has been successful at
keeping active cases low in number with very limited adverse impact on the
campus. But it is critical that we do not let our guard down.
 
It is very important for the well-being of your classmates and colleagues that you
participate in this new testing effort. This new strategy for ongoing, free testing
aims to proactively mitigate risk by identifying potentially asymptomatic
individuals, who might otherwise unknowingly spread the virus. It includes:
 
Weekly, a group of students and employees will be randomly selected to
provide an appropriate sample size to assess risk levels.
Selection will be done randomly within residency groups for students (e.g.
Thompson Hall, Campus Village, Greek housing, commuters, etc) and
working groups for employees (e.g. University Advancement, Student
Affairs, Custodial Services, etc).
Those selected for testing will be notified via email (Wellness Center will
contact students and HR Office will contact employees) later in a given
week to schedule testing for early the following week.
Testing for both students and employees will be conducted on campus by
Wellness Center staff or Helix Diagnostics.
Testing results will be provided to students by the Wellness Center and to
employees by the HR Office, normally within two to three business days.
There will be no impact on access to the campus for those selected for
testing, unless of course there is a positive test result for a given individual
that requires further action and contact tracing.  
 
Please note: This new, additional testing will not replace existing required
testing to be on campus for individuals who are symptomatic, have been
identified via contact tracing for potential exposure, or who have traveled to an
area with a positivity rate above 10% as defined by the University’s travel
policy in the Safe Campus 2021 guidelines.
Spring Term Testing Dates
For the upcoming Spring Term, all students and employees who will be on
campus will be required to be tested during the period of April 1-5 and have a
negative test result before being granted access to the campus. Further
information, including links to schedule an appointment, will be communicated
in the coming weeks.

Required COVID-19 Testing For Spring Term
All residential and non-residential students that will be on campus during Spring
Term will be required to be tested on campus for COVID-19 with a negative
test result in order to have access to campus buildings (Note: Thompson Hall
residents will be allowed in the residence hall with limited access to the Campus
Center for meals). All employees who will be on campus during Spring Term
must also be tested; however, since employees will have no significant break in
workload, a negative test result will not be required to have continued access to
buildings on campus.
The free COVID-19 testing will be conducted by Helix Diagnostics and will be
held in the Campus Center during the period of April 1-5. As done in previous
terms, appointments for testing must be scheduled in advance. More specific
details on the appointment times available along with the link to online
scheduling will be sent via email by Friday, March 19.
Anyone who has been fully vaccinated and can provide a copy of his/her
COVID-19 Vaccination Record Card as confirmation may request an exemption
from the required COVID-19 testing as outlined above. To do so, students
should contact the Wellness Center, and employees should contact the Human
Resources Office.
 
For anyone whose test result is positive, safety protocols will be followed as
directed by the Wellness Center or Human Resources Office. This will likely
involve quarantining and undergoing additional COVID-19 testing before access
to campus buildings is restored.
Anyone who is experiencing COVID-19 symptoms or has been exposed to
someone with COVID-19 must not return to campus and instead contact the
Wellness Center (for students) or the Human Resource Office (for employees)
for guidance.
The University will also continue its Randomized COVID-19 Sampling Testing
for all students, faculty, and staff that launched during the Winter Term. We
appreciate the participation of everyone as it has contributed to the ongoing
success and safety of our campus community.
Safety Guidelines for Travel
Please note the University’s safety guidelines relating to travel continue to be in
effect. 
Students or employees who choose to travel to another state in the U.S. with a
COVID-19 positive testing rate of 10% or higher on a seven-day rolling
average must take one of two safety measures prior to returning to campus,
either:
Self-quarantine for 14 days without symptoms of COVID-19 arising, or
Self-quarantine for a minimum of seven days and then be tested for
COVID-19 with a negative test result. 
To determine the positive testing rate for a given state, the University will utilize
the data supplied daily by the John Hopkins University Coronavirus Resource
Center through its website link “Testing Trends Tool”. If the state to which you
traveled is shown to have a positive testing percentage of 10% or higher on
the day of your return, you will have to take one of the two safety measures
outlined above before returning to campus.  
During the quarantine period, students would need to move to virtual/online
instruction and employees would need to move to work remotely. If an employee
is unable to work remotely during the quarantine period, they would need to use
available vacation, personal or sick time hours in order to be compensated.
If you have any questions, please contact the Wellness Center (for students) or
Human Resource Office (for employees). 
Safe Campus 2021 Guidelines
The complete Safe Campus 2021 Guidelines are available on the University’s
website. This includes: Testing & Health Services, Safety Measures, Academics
& Co-op, Student Life, Facilities and Visiting Campus.
Spring Term Course Delivery
As we did in Winter Term, the University will continue to operate in an
“exceptions model,” with activities and facilities open and permitted subject to
our ability to maintain safe practices with respect to masks, hygiene, distance,
and density.
A majority of classes will be delivered live, face-to-face, by a professor in the
hybrid model. This means that students will be able to attend in-person, and
lectures will be captured (recorded) so students can log in virtually to the
synchronous class. A limited number of courses will be delivered in the virtual
mode only.
Students will continue to be able to opt to attend classes virtually, but in the
absence of specific health exceptions, they will be strongly encouraged to attend
all face-to-face lectures available to them.
