Abstract

Timed development and thermal reflow processes have been utilized for the fabrication of rounded microfluidic channel and microlens. The curvature or the sphericity can be predicted by microfluidic surface mechanics and the meniscus profile derived from the Young-Laplace equation. Microfluidic channels with rounded walls, microlenses, and waveguide integrated microlenses are successfully demonstrated as test vehicles.
