Femtosecond laser direct writing is a promising technique for fabricating optofluidics since it can modify
the interior of glass in a spatially selective manner through multiphoton absorption. The unique ability
of femtosecond laser direct writing to simultaneously alter the chemical and optical properties of glass
opens up a new avenue for fabricating a variety of optofluidics since it can easily fabricate threedimensional
microfluidics and optics inside glass. Optofluidics fabricated using femtosecond lasers have
been used to determine the functions of living microorganisms, determine the concentrations of liquid
samples, detect and manipulate single cells, and rapidly screen algae populations. This paper presents a
review of optofluidics for biological analysis fabricated by femtosecond laser processing.
