Abstract
Integrated elastomeric valves, also referred to as Quake valves, enable precise control and manipulation of fluid within microfluidic devices. Fabrication of such valves requires bonding of multiple layers of the silicone polymer polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS). The conventional method for PDMS-PDMS bonding is to use varied base to crosslinking agent ratios between layers, typically 20:1 and 5:1. This bonding technique, known as off-ratio bonding,...
