Abstract

A microfluidic device for polymerase chain reaction (PCR) processing includes a platform with a microstructure with at least one reaction chamber, and a heating element. The heating element heats at least a part of the at least one reaction chamber. The heating element includes at least one spin torque oscillator (STO) configured to heat the at least a part of the at least one reaction chamber to one or more temperatures for PCR processing.
