Siegel, “Terahertz technology in biology and medicine,”&amp;nbsp;&lt;em&gt;IEEE Trans. Microw. Theor. Tech.&lt;/em&gt;, vol. 52, pp. 2438–2447, 2004). This article presents our recent efforts in the implementation of microfluidic channel networks with silicon-based technologies to unleash the potential of an integrated sub-THz microfluidic sensor platform. Various aspects of dielectric sensors, readout systems, flowmeter design as well as implemention- and technology-related questions are addressed. Three dielectric sensor systems are presented operating at 240&amp;nbsp;GHz realizing transmission-based, reflection-based and full two-port architectures. Furthermore different silicon based microchannel integration techniques are discussed as well as a novel copper pillar-based PCB microchannel method is proposed and successfully demonstrated.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">11</style></issue></record></records></xml>
