  • Abstract
    In this research a CO2 IR laser was used to create reconfigurable microchannels in ice where parameters could be changed during operation. The flow of liquid acts as its own shut-off valve by freezing/melting. Concentration of dye can be achieved in ice and was observed with a reflection spectrophotometer
