This paper describes a novel method for fabricating paper-based microfluidic devices using a laser beam scanning technique. Cellulose chromatography papers were treated with octadecyltrichlorosilane (OTS) to make them entirely hydrophobic. A photoacid generator (CPI-410S) was soaked into the paper, and irradiated with a 405-nm laser beam to induce acid generating reactions. Since the silyl ether bond between cellulose and OTS was cleaved by the hydrolysis reaction, the photo-irradiated area changed to hydrophilic. By scanning the laser beam using a Galvo mirror system, arbitrary shaped hydrophilic patterns were successfully created on the paper in 50 mu m resolution. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report on the fabrication of hydrophilic channels on the OTS-treated paper using photo-induced acid generation processes coupled with the laser beam scanning technique. Quantification of nitrite was demonstrated with the paper device made by this method.
