Polydimethylsiloxane based microfluidic diode
In this paper, we present a novel elastomer-based microfluidic device for rectifying flow. The device is analogous to an electronic diode in function since it allows flow in one direction and stops flow in the opposing direction. The device is planar, in-line and can be replica molded via standard soft lithography techniques. The fabrication process is outlined in detail and follows a simple pr...
متن کاملMicrovalves based on ionic polymer-metal composites for microfluidic application.
Simple and highly efficient microvalve systems based on an ionic polymer-metal composite (IPMC) diaphragm actuator have been developed. The microvalve system that was fabricated in this work operates when open and close voltage is applied, due to the phenomena of lithium ion flux and the subsequent electro-osmotic drag of water to the cathode. IPMC was prepared by compositing with platinum nano...
متن کاملMultifunctional microvalves control by optical illumination on nanoheaters and its application in centrifugal microfluidic devices.
Valving is critical in microfluidic systems. Among many innovative microvalves used in lab-on-a-chip applications, phase change based microvalves using paraffin wax are particularly attractive for disposable biochip applications because they are simple to implement, cost-effective and biocompatible. However, previously reported paraffin-based valves require embedded microheaters and therefore m...
متن کاملFabrication of microfluidic devices using polydimethylsiloxane.
Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) is nearly ubiquitous in microfluidic devices, being easy to work with, economical, and transparent. A detailed protocol is provided here for using PDMS in the fabrication of microfluidic devices to aid those interested in using the material in their work, with information on the many potential ways the material may be used for novel devices.
متن کاملAcoustothermal heating of polydimethylsiloxane microfluidic system
We report an observation of rapid (exceeding 2,000 K/s) heating of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), one of the most popular microchannel materials, under cyclic loadings at high (~MHz) frequencies. A microheater was developed based on the finding. The heating mechanism utilized vibration damping in PDMS induced by sound waves that were generated and precisely controlled using a conventional surface...
