Microfluidic Manifolds by Polymer Hot Embossing for μ-Tas Applications

  • Conference paper
Micro Total Analysis Systems ’98

Abstract

In this paper we present a low-cost replication method for planar microstructures based on polymer substrates. Several microfluidic chips for capillary electrophoresis (CE) applications with a range of channel widths between 0.8 μm and 100 μm have been produced by this method, yielding a very good structural replication and short production times.
