Abstract

In the future, micro-manufacturing will be of vital importance in many areas, including biomedical engineering, energy, semiconductor packaging etc. Microfluidics is a technology to handle or manipulate tiny amount of liquid in micro-channels, which can be a versatile platform for the micro-manufacturing of materials with precisely-controlled dimension, structure, component, and functionality. In this talk, I will mainly focus on the microfluidics-enabled micro-manufacturing (MEMM), from the fundamentals of the microfluidics, the processes for the materials fabrication in MEMM, and the advantages of MEMM. I will also outline some of my recent progress on MEMM, which inherits promises for various applications.
