Constructing Planar and Three-Dimensional Microstructures with PDMS-Based Conducting Composite
We present an invention on the synthesis of elastic bio-compatible functional microstructures wherein the designed electrical functionalities are achieved by mixing conducting nano to micro-particles with PDMS gels. The methodology for constructing planar and three-dimensional microstructures by soft-lithographic technique is presented. Applications such as electrodes conducting strips two and three-dimensional microstructures for electrical wiring connections micro heaters micro heater arrays flexible thermochromic displays and applications for microfluidic devices are demonstrated all with demonstrated elastic flexibility and fall-proof characteristics while maintaining their functionalities. Results obtained are very promising for the utilization of such composites in future micro-fabrications especially for the bio-chips and microfluidic devices.
