The design and fabrication of complex microfluidic devices is a subject of broad biomedical and technological interest. In this paper, we demonstrate the fabrication of a three-dimensional (3D) dielectrophoretic microparticle separator involving ultraviolet (UV)-assisted direct-write assembly of a UV-curable polyurethane. This approach yields a series of 3D microcoil interdigitated electrodes with defined geometry promoting particle separation through dielectrophoresis.

This paper deals with the design and microfabrication of two three-dimensional (3D) freestanding patterned strain sensors made of single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) nanocomposites with the ultraviolet-assisted direct-write (UV-DW) technique. The first sensor consisted of three nanocomposite microfibers suspended between two rectangular epoxy pads. The flexibility of the UV-DW technique enables the sensor and its housing to be manufactured in one monolithic structure.
