Free standing artificial lipid bilayers are widely used in the study of biological pores. In these types of studies, the free standing planar lipid bilayer is formed over a micron-sized aperture consisting of either polymer such as Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE, Teflon) or glass. Teflon is chemically inert, has a low dielectric constant, and has a high electrical resistance which combined allow for obtaining low noise recordings. This study investigates the reproducible generation of micropores in the range of 50-100 microns in diamet
