Abstract
Laser-induced backside wet etching (LIBWE) method has been developed as a technique for micromachining of transparent materials. Such technique can be applied for fabricating microfluidic devices used as "Lab on a Chip" or total microanalysis system (μTAS). In such devices, various functions are integrated onto one chip. Microstructure with 1μm resolution fabricated within microfluidic channels can afford additional functions to the chip. Color-encoded microbeads with surface functional groups randomly arranged in the microstructure can be used for bioarray analyses. We have fabricated a novel microfluidic device incorporating two-dimensional array of microbeads with 10 μm diameter. The performance of the microfluidic bead array was confirmed by a capturing experiment of DNA.
