ABSTRACT:
Disclosed herein is a method for making a fluid-based switch having a channel plate and a switching fluid. The method comprises 1) ultrasonically milling at least one feature into a channel plate, and 2) aligning the at least one feature cut in the channel plate with at least one feature on a substrate and sealing at least a switching fluid between the channel plate and the substrate. Alternate embodiments of the invention are also disclosed.
