Nowadays, micro- and nanochips are usually fabricated with Silicon and/or glass. A simple, low-cost and reliable integration packaging method that provides flexibility to the incorporation of electronic and fluidic devices into a system has not been fully developed yet. The use of Printed Circuit Board material as substrate to create dry film...
