Abstract: Structures for making and using a drawn preform from a plurality of tubes are provided. The drawn preform includes a first end of the preform defining source side of the preform and a second end of the preform defining a delivery side of the preform. At least some tubes of the plurality of tubes of the second end of the preform are drawn to a dimension of at least less than one micron in size. The drawn preform is capable of manipulating materials (e.g., fluids, chemicals, biological samples, solids, inks, etc.) as the materials go through the tubes from a source end to the delivery end, or when the material is already present within one of the tubes.

Abstract: Structures and method for making, using and implementing a drawn preform from a plurality of tubes are provided. The drawn preform includes a first end of the preform defining source side of the preform and a second end of the preform defining a delivery side of the preform. At least some tubes of the plurality of tubes of the second end of the preform are drawn to a dimension of at least less than one micron in size. The drawn preform is capable of including conductors integrated with the tubes, and the conductors enable manipulation of materials (e.g., fluids, chemicals, biological samples, solids, inks, etc.) as the go through the tubes from a source end to the delivery end, or when the material is already present on a target substrate or receiving cell or material.
