title = "Low power and low cost temperature and fluid control in PDMS microfluidic devices",
abstract = "On-chip control of fluids and temperature are critical capabilities for Micro Total Analysis Systems. Moreover, portable devices require pumps, valves, and heaters that operate within the constraints of a limited power budget. Using a combination of multilayer soft lithography and microscale Plasma Activated Templating (µ-PLAT)[1], we fabricate integrated electromechanical circuits in PDMS consisting of thermopneumatic valves for fluid control and thermocouples for in situ temperature measurement.",
