Abstract: An example microfluidic mixer can include an inlet microfluidic channel portion and a fluid splitting channel portion including an overpass microfluidic channel to receive fluid from a first side of the inlet microfluidic channel portion and an underpass microfluidic channel to receive fluid from a second side of the inlet microfluidic channel portion, where the underpass microfluidic channel extends under the overpass microfluidic channel such that the channels overlap at their respective downstream ends. A fluid recombining channel portion is downstream of the fluid splitting portion and includes an angled recombining surface having an acute angle with respect to a direction of fluid flow, where the angled recombining surface is between the downstream ends of the overpass and underpass microfluidic channels. An outlet microfluidic channel portion is fluidly connected downstream from the fluid recombining channel portion.

Abstract: An example microfluidic structure can include a first microfluidic channel segment in a first elevation plane, a second microfluidic channel segment in a second elevation plane, and a transverse microfluidic channel segment connecting the first microfluidic channel segment to the second microfluidic channel segment. An angled exterior wall segment can be at the transverse microfluidic channel segment. The angled exterior wall segment can be angled in the first or second elevation plane at an acute angle with respect to a direction of fluid flow through the first or second microfluidic channel segment. A fluid cross-sectional area can increase in the fluid flow direction along the angled exterior wall segment.

Abstract: An example microfluidic structure can include a first microfluidic channel segment in a first elevation plane, a second microfluidic channel segment in a second elevation plane, and a transverse microfluidic channel segment connecting the first microfluidic channel segment to the second microfluidic channel segment. An interior pillar can be positioned at the transverse microfluidic channel segment. The interior pillar can have a tapered downstream edge. The tapered downstream edge can be angled in the first or second elevation plane at an acute angle. A fluid cross-sectional area can increase in the fluid flow direction along the tapered downstream edge.
