A simple and inexpensive low‐temperature cofired ceramic (LTCC) microfluidic device with integrated optical fibers is designed, manufactured, and tested with positive results. Fluidic channels, mixer, detector, optical fiber, light source, light detector, heater, and temperature sensor are integrated in one LTCC module. The optical system in the LTCC microsystem permits measurements of light transmittance and fluorescence. The design, technology, and results of the module's evaluation are presented.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
