A Versatile Bonding Method for PDMS and SU-8 and Its Application towards a Multifunctional Microfluidic Device

This paper reports a versatile and irreversible bonding method for poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) and SU-8. The method is based on epoxide opening and dehydration reactions between surface-modified PDMS and SU-8. A PDMS replica is first activated via the low-cost lab equipment, i.e., the oxygen plasm...
