Abstract

See full text

An integrated microfluidic systems and the method of fabrication is disclosed wherein various microfluidic devices fabricated onto substrates are bonded together either using an intermediary layer or not to facilitate the bonding process. The microfluidic ports on the microfluidic devices are aligned prior to bonding and the bonding results in leak-proof seals between the devices. Moreover, the fluidic capacitance using the present invention is eliminated thereby enabling microfluidic systems with far faster time responses. The example embodiments have a wide range of applications including medical, industrial control, aerospace, automotive, consumer electronics and products, as well as any application(s) requiring the use of multiple microfluidic devices.
