Our results demonstrated that the proposed integration of a graphene-based device and a laser-pulse ablation process to form a thin-film PCR device has cost benefits in a small-volume reagent and holds great promise for practical medical use of DNA amplification. DNA amplification is performed using thermal cycling, with a high degree of control of stable and uniform temperature distribution being attributed to array structures (Bigham et al., 2017; Seo et al., 2018) , microchannel heat exchangers (Riera et al., 2013) , membrane-based microfluidics (Chen and Shen, 2017) , and doped hybrid materials (Seo et al., 2016) . ./cache/cord-274644-gr1eaj6k.txt ./txt/cord-274644-gr1eaj6k.txt
