Rapid fabrication of microfluidic PDMS devices from reusable PDMS molds using laser ablation
The conventional fabrication methods for microfluidic devices require cleanroom processes that are costly and time-consuming. We present a novel, facile, and low-cost method for rapid fabrication of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) molds and devices. The method consists of three main fabrication steps: female mold (FM), male mold (MM), and chip fabrication. We use a CO2 laser cutter to pattern a thi...
متن کاملFunctionalized glass coating for PDMS microfluidic devices
Microfluidic devices can perform multiple laboratory functions on a single, compact, and fully integrated chip. However, fabrication of microfluidic devices is difficult, and current methods, such as glass-etching or soft-lithography in PDMS, are either expensive or yield devices with poor chemical robustness. We introduce a simple method that combines the simple fabrication of PDMS with superi...
متن کاملPdms Microfluidic Devices with Ptfe Passivated Channels
PDMS microfluidic devices whose whole inner surfaces are covered with PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) are described. The major problems of PDMS fluidic devices in practical use, are surface degradation with organic solvents and unexpected absorption of chemical materials. In order to overcome these problems, spin/dip-coated perfluoro amorphous polymer is used to form the passivation PTFE layer o...
متن کاملBeyond PDMS: off-stoichiometry thiol-ene (OSTE) based soft lithography for rapid prototyping of microfluidic devices.
In this article we introduce a novel polymer platform based on off-stoichiometry thiol-enes (OSTEs), aiming to bridge the gap between research prototyping and commercial production of microfluidic devices. The polymers are based on the versatile UV-curable thiol-ene chemistry but takes advantage of off-stoichiometry ratios to enable important features for a prototyping system, such as one-step ...
متن کاملFunctional patterning of PDMS microfluidic devices using integrated chemo-masks.
Microfluidic devices can be molded easily from PDMS using soft lithography. However, the softness of the resulting microchannels makes it difficult to photolithographically pattern their surface properties, as is needed for applications such as double emulsification. We introduce a new patterning method for PDMS devices, using integrated oxygen reservoirs fabricated simultaneously with the micr...
