Abstract

Metal-based microscale heat exchangers have potential advantages over similar Si-based devices. Bonding and assembly are critical for building functional metal-based microfluidic devices from metallic high-aspect-ratio microscale structures (HARMS). In this paper, we report eutectic bonding of Al specimens with Al–Ge thin film intermediate layers. Quantitative evaluation of bond strengths was carried out as a function of various bonding parameters, including bonding temperature, applied pressure, and Al–Ge intermediate layer thickness. With this eutectic bonding strategy, successful assembly of multilayered Al microfluidic structures is demonstrated.
