Surface tension-driven self-alignment.
Surface tension-driven self-alignment is a passive and highly-accurate positioning mechanism that can significantly simplify and enhance the construction of advanced microsystems. After years of research, demonstrations and developments, the surface engineering and manufacturing technology enabling capillary self-alignment has achieved a degree of maturity conducive to a successful transfer to ...

متن کاملSelf-alignment of microparts using liquid surface tension—behavior of micropart and alignment characteristics
The purpose of this research is to establish a self-alignment technique for microparts assembly using liquid surface tension. The factors that influence alignment performance are examined and ways of performance improvement are discussed experimentally and theoretically. First, the relationship between the alignment accuracy and the behavior of the micropart and the water droplet is examined in...
متن کاملSurface Tension-driven Flow in A
We consider an inviscid fluid, initially at rest inside a wedge, bounded by one free surface and one solid surface. When t = 0, we allow the contact angle to change discontinuously, which leads the free surface to recoil under the action of surface tension. As noted by Keller and Miksis [SIAM J. Appl. Math., 43 (1983), pp. 268–277], a similarity scaling is available, with lengths scaling like t...
متن کاملSurface Tension Driven Transport Using Roughness
Surface tension, a line force, is a unique type of force, which scales directly to length. When the dimension of interest shrinks down to sub-millimeter range, the size range typical for MEMS devices, surface-tension force becomes dominant over most other forces, such as those based on pressure (surface force) or mass (body force), e.g., see [1,2]. This dominance of surface tension has most typ...
