This thesis deals with the silicon etching technology. It Examines using of water solution of potassium hydroxide. It focuses on plasma etching of silicon using mixture of CF4 and O2 as the dry way of etching. Important parameters of etching like etching rate of silicon and masking materials, etching selectivity, surface roughness and underetching of mask are determined for both ways. Some additional processes has been examined as well, namely creating of mask of resist and silicon dioxide, lithography process and etching of resist using oxygen plasma.

This diploma thesis deals with the design of composition and the study of properties of the ternary binding system based on purposeful ettringite formation, which was subsequently used for the preparation of self-leveling floor materials, specifically self-levelling underlay and thin-layer floor screed. In the designed compositions of the mixtures is then focused attention on optimizing the dosage of two kinds of plasticizer agents, followed by assessing their impact on the technological properties of these materials.

This thesis focuses on low-cost microextraction techniques and their application for purification and preconcentration of biological samples, specifically on the experimental study of supported liquid membrane (SLM) extraction. The described microextraction technique uses commercially available filtration plates as the extraction units and allows the extraction of basic drugs from biological samples of urine and blood (in the form of dried blood spots). The experimental part includes the optimization of microextraction conditions of basic drugs from real samples through a SLM coupled in-line to lab-made capillary electrophoresis. The basic optimization of microextraction conditions involved selecting the appropriate organic phase for membrane impregnation (1:1 mixture of ENB and DHE), appropriate agitation speed for sample convection during extraction (1000 rpm), and optimal ratio of donor to acceptor volumes for high preconcentration of the analytes (400:15 µL). After basic optimization, the effect of donor alkalization with NaOH on extraction recovery (ER) was investigated. For all matrices used (saline solution, undiluted human urine samples, human capillary blood eluted from dry blood spots with deionized water), the highest ER values were achieved using a neutral donor and an acidic acceptor. The extraction time (60 minutes) was optimized based on the time profile of the microextraction for 120 minutes. This optimized microextraction method is suitable for the determination of basic drugs in real matrices with sufficient sample clean-up, preconcentration and ER values.
