ABSTRACT:
Described is a method of manufacturing a silicious micro-valve comprising the steps of providing a first silicious substrate; removing a portion of the first substrate to reveal the 111 planes of the first substrate; drawing an epitaxial layer to conform to the 111 planes of the first substrate; and assembling the first substrate and the epitaxial layer as two separate identical pieces to form a micro-valve having 111 planes.
