Polymer Based
Microfluidic Components for Bio-medical Applications |
|
Microchannels, micropumps and micromixers are integrated
into a single chip fabricated by micro molding replication
technique. This optically transparent and biocompatible
microfluidic system will enable novel applications in
biomedical/chemical analyses, drug delivery, and
fundamental studies on microfluidic flow field based on
microscopic visualization. |

MEMS
Fabrication and Assembly
| Non-Contact Batch Micro-Assembly by Centrifugal Force |
| Centrifugal force is applied on micro mirrors for batch assembly. Theoretically, centrifugal force can be generated on different sizes of MUMPs structures (poly1, poly2, and gold) by changing the angular velocity of a spinning
disc. |
