Abstract :
Metallic mirrors are important components of optomicrofluidic systems for their good reflection properties. Their use, however, has remained challenging due to their difficult integration. We describe the integration of Indium (In) mirrors into microfluidic devices for optical detection using an approach that is fast, simple, and inexpensive.
