Titel
Laser based rapid prototyping for imprint technology and micro fluidics
Abstract
Microreactors are highly miniaturized and automated. They implement complex chemical and biological processes with minimal technical and personnel effort. They also have a compact design, high functionality and are easy to handle. Short information paths enable short reaction times. The miniature design reduces wiring and thus increases reliability. Heat and mass transport are intensified. Flexible and fast generation of micro fluidic designs require an alternative technique for cast master manufacturing. Compared with the established method of photolithography, laser rapid prototyping with ultra short laser pulses offers a faster and adaptable way for research und manufacturing.
