Abstract
A microfluidic device includes an integrated circuit and a first substrate layer having a first surface and a second surface. The first surface of the first substrate layer is connected to the integrated circuit. The first substrate layer is in fluid communication with the integrated circuit. The microfluidic device also includes a second substrate layer having a surface area substantially larger than that of the first substrate layer. The second substrate layer includes a first and second surface. The first surface of the second substrate layer is connected to the second surface of the first substrate layer. The second substrate layer includes a first fluid inlet. The second substrate layer is in fluid communication with the integrated circuit through the first substrate layer.
