“…In addition, because 3D-printing can be performed at a very high resolution, it is easy to fabricate a complex and miniaturized integrated microfluidic device. 34 Our system, unlike commercial UCPCs and previous CPCs developed by our research team, uses water as the working fluid and has been optimized to generate more vapor (high supersaturation state) to grow smaller nanoparticles into droplets. Also, our system enables the stable microdroplet growth of nanoparticles by applying sheath air in the nanoparticle growth sector.…”

“…Thus, Lab-on-PCBs have been developed as stand-alone devices like biosensors and diagnosis systems (Zhao et al 2020 ). Prior to merging of 3D printing and microfluidics, the integration of microfluidic elements with PCBs has been mostly through clamping, taping, adhesives, or punching holes and screwing the two parts together (Baek et al 2023 ; Thanh et al 2022 ; Wan et al 2019 ). Apart from prototypes and lab studies, the development of microfluidic system with PCB towards more commercialized products necessitates proper and durable bonding.…”

“…Apart from prototypes and lab studies, the development of microfluidic system with PCB towards more commercialized products necessitates proper and durable bonding. This needs the integration of the microfluidic valve from a 3D-printable resin to bond properly with the outermost layer of PCB patterned with electrodes (Perdigones 2021 ; Thanh et al 2022 ). Recently, liquid metal (LM) bistable valves received more attention owing to unique properties of LMs (Bhagwat et al 2022 ; Daeneke et al 2018 ; Eaker and Dickey 2016 ; Gough et al 2014 ).…”
