| Abstract | Laser transmission welding (LTW) is a widely employed joining technique for thermoplastics microfluidic devices bonding with its distinctive advantages, such as non-contact and no relative part movement. One basic requirement for successful laser transmission welding is that one of the plastics needs to be optically transparent for the wavelength of the laser radiation with the other being laser absorbing. The current study aims to develop laser transmission welding process for the bonding of two transparent polycarbonate (PC) microfluidic substrates with the channel size of 50μm. Transparent laser absorbent material is applied on the one substrate surface to make a laser absorbing interface. A fully coupled thermal-displacement finite element (FE) model is established to simulate the performances of the welding. The process window, including laser power, scanning speed and clamping force, is derived with the modeling method. The welded channel quality, in terms of collapsed height, clogging size, and bonding strength, can meet the requirements of microfluidic device applications. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
