“…With a growing demand in biotechnology, microfluidics, and nanofluidics, various fabrication technologies for microchannels and nanochannels have been extensively developed (Tamanaha et al, 2002;Najafi et al, 1998;Piotter et al, 1997;Quake and Scherer, 2000;Ko et al, 2003;Qin and Li, 2001;Pan et al, 2004;Lijima, 1991;Hosoda et al, 2003;Cheng et al, 2004;Zeng et al, 2005;Luchnikov et al, 2005;Routkevitch et al, 1996;Mikulskas et al, 2001;Yoo et al, 2002;Böhm et al, 2001;Engel and Eckstein, 2002;Sen and Shan, 2005;Joo et al, 2005). In the late 20th century, well established IC fabrication technology had a profound impact on the creation of silicon or glass-based microchannels.…”
