Zusammenfassung:A microfluidic device includes a formed sheet of glass or glass ceramic material formed to have one or more first micro channels on a first surface thereof and one or more second micro channels on a second surface opposite the first. The second channels are complementary to the first channels and the first channels are substantially closed by a first sheet of glass or glass ceramic material bonded to the first surface of the formed sheet. The second channels may be substantially closed by a second sheet of a glass or glass ceramic material bonded to the second surface. The first and second sheets may also be formed sheets. The device may be formed by vacuum-forming the formed sheet against a single surface mold, then bonding a plate to one or both sides of the formed sheet.
