| Abstract | A novel method for in-situ temperature measurements of microfluidic devices using thin-film poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) saturated with Rhodamine B dye is reported. Rhodamine B, a dye with temperature dependent fluorescent intensity, is frequently injected into the working fluid for on-chip temperature field visualization of glass and silicon based microfluidic devices. However, such a visualization method results in unreliable temperature measurements due to high absorption and adsorption for polymeric devices such as PDMS. Thus, an inexpensive temperature measurement technique is developed in which a thin PDMS layer (∼30 μm) is fabricated and submersed for several days into a Rhodamine B solution. To prevent backward diffusion of the dye into the working fluid during operation, a glass barrier (∼150 μm) is bonded between the thin film and the PDMS mold containing the microchannel design of interest. Temperature measurements are made by utilizing standard method of measuring changes in the normalized fluorescent intensity. For verification purposes, a new calibration curve is developed and the thin film is tested with a microchannel subjected to joule heating. The resulting temperature field along the axial direction of the channel for different applied powers compares well with numerical simulations. Analysis of dye intensities before and after experiments provides temperature deviation estimates due to photobleaching. Errors in temperature measurement due to the film thickness are discussed. |

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.
