Integrated Microsystems for Molecular Pathology
نویسندگان
چکیده
We have integrated electronic, optical, magnetic, thermal and fluidic devices into systems to construct useful analysis tools. Over the past several years, we have developed soft lithography approaches to define microfluidic systems in which pico-Liter volumes can be manipulated. These fluidic delivery systems have more recently been integrated with optical and electronic devices. We have also developed thermal control systems with fast (>50oC/s) cooling and heating ramp speeds and excellent accuracy.

متن کاملImplications of Intelligent, Integrated Microsystems for Product Design and Development
Intelligent, integrated microsystems combine some or all of the functions of sensing, processing information, actuation, and communication within a single integrated package, and preferably upon a single silicon chip. As the elements of these highly integrated solutions interact strongly with each other, the microsystem can be neither designed nor fabricated piecemeal, in contrast to the more f...
متن کاملInterfacial Delamination in Integrated Microsystems
Introduction Due to the goal of increasing functionality and decreasing costs in micro-electronic packages, integrated circuit processing and miniaturized fabrication technologies have been combined to result in microsystems such as System In Packages (SIP). Microsystems consist of multiple thin and stacked layers, manufactured using different materials. Hence, interfacial failures, mainly in t...
