Abstract:The combination of printed circuit boards (PCB) and microfluidics has many advantages. The combination of electrodes, sensors and electronics is needed for almost all microfluidic systems. Using PCBs as a substrate, this integration is intrinsic. Additive manufacturing has become a widely used technique in industry, research and by hobbyists. One very promising rapid prototype technique is vat polymerization with an LCD as mask, also known as masked stereolithography (mSLA). These printers are available with r… Show more
“…The technique is available with good resolutions for microfluidics (down to 35 µm). The work reported in [ 7 ] describes a technology which creates microfluidics on a Printed Circuit Board substrate using a mSLA printer. The authors describe the steps of the production process, so that, the procedure can be carried out using commercially available printers and resins.…”
