Agenda
DAY 1 and DAY 2Process Demonstrations (3:45 pm – 5:30 pm)Photolithography (Bob)
Rapid Prototyping (Varshni)
FIB milling (Amar)
Hot Embossing (Swathi)
DAY 3 (235 Chapman Hall – UNC Campus)
8:30 am Work in teams of 2 and carry out the following steps (Team):
1. Build a microfluidic deviceUsing molding tool and PDMS casting to build a device with/without a herringbone mixer to mix water with a dye solution
2. Perform metrology on device
Optical Microscopy of structures 3. Device assemblyPlasma treatment of PDMS deviceAssemble to glass microscope slide Fluidic mixing of a dye solution and waterOptical microscopy12:00 pm – 1:00 pm LUNCHPresentations – Each team will present slides addressing these pointsWhat are the advantages and disadvantages of using PDMS for microfluidics?Metrology of device. Why was the PDMS treated with O2 plasma prior to assembly?Effects of herringbone mixer on mixing time.Without the herringbone, what induces the mixing?Slide7
Day 3: Hands on – Making a Microfluidic Device for Mixing
Dr. Witek (right) discussing concept of mixing fluidic device with workshop participants.
Drs. Donley and Witek (right) talking to participants on how to use the device that was just made.
Participants using their microfluidic device for the mixing of two reagents and watching the evolution of the mixing with a microscope.
Participants are working on casting PDMS against an SU8 relief that was made the previous day in the lithography process demonstration.Slide8
Day 3: Hands on – Making a Microfluidic Device for Mixing
Participants engaged in deep discussion about microfluidics.
Dr. Bob Geil discusses the process of casting PDMS against SU-8 reliefs and then assembling the device by plasma treating the PDMS and
conformally sealing to a glass slide.Dr. Bob Geil talking to Prof. David Kaufman about building microfluidic devices.
Workshop participants carefully going over their data on the performance of their microfluidic device.Slide9
TOTAL NUMBER OF PARTICIPANTS - 15Slide10
Workshop Feedback
Summary of participant comments:Participants wanted more information in advance.Schedule should be posted and advertised when people register.Schedule should be e-mailed to participants before they arrive.Information on food to be served should be e-mailed.2. Lectures need to be broken into smaller chunks.3. Some lectures were too long (Park and Murphy), others too detailed.4. Participants were looking for more variety in the types of applications presented on day 2.5. Breaks were too long. Shorter breaks could lead to getting out earlier.6. Some speakers were too quiet (audience members were likely sitting in back where some ventilation makes it hard to hear).
7. A smaller classroom might have been a better venue for such a small audience.8. Flash drive with content was a good idea.9. Guests would appreciate wi-fi access.
10. Parking situation was a bit unclear.11. Fewer people should be allowed in the cleanroom at once to reduce wait times.Some attendees struggled with the 8:00am start time, and didn’t make it until later. A start time of 8:30 or 9:00am might mean that more attendees get to see everything. A later starting time would also make things easier on the organizers.
