Abstract
Methods and systems for optofluidic device fabrication and design are herein disclosed. In examples, a user may manufacture the optofluidic device using stereolithography (SLA) three-dimensional (3D) printing, in which photosensitive resin is exposed to a focused laser, solidifying specific areas of resin. The optofluidic device may guide light for a broad wavelength range from a liquid or gas channel comprised within and may be used to guide the emission of light and particles of interest to a detector to identify the particles.
