title = "UV-light structured silanization for selective bonding and fabrication of paper-based microfluidic channels",
abstract = "We present UV-light induced silanization techniques that can be used for bonding stereolithographically structured microfluidic devices to polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) as well as for structuring paper-based microfluidic devices. By using a printed lithography mask locally constrained silanization is achieved. This is beneficial for bonding microfluidic devices especially when the liquid to be transferred within the device should not react with chemical leftovers on the channel walls. Furthermore, the technique may enable the production of {"}hidden channels{"}. Using the silanization technique for structuring paper-based microfluidic devices we could reduce the fabrication time of such devices to less than ten minutes.",
