Characterization of Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) Properties for Biomedical Micro/Nanosystems (2005, background): “…thermally stable, permeable to gases, simple to handle and manipulate, exhibits isotropic and homogeneous properties as well as lower cost than silicon, and can conform to submicron features to develop microstructures (McDonald and Whitesides, 2002; Ng et al., 2002; Xia and Whitesides, 1998).”
ENGINEERING FLOWS IN SMALL DEVICES (2004, methodology): “We also leave aside a discussion of the variety of methods for making microdevices (e.g., see Madou 1997, Kovacs 1998, Quake & Scherer 2000, Ng et al. 2002), and only mention that most techniques produce planar structures with long and narrow channels for which lubrication-style analyses are often…”
