Microfluidic mixing via acoustically driven chaotic advection.
Mixing presents a notoriously difficult problem in small amounts of fluids. Herein, surface acoustic waves provide a convenient technique to generate time-dependent flow patterns. These flow patterns can be optimized in such a way that advected particles are mixed most efficiently in the fluid within a short time compared to the time pure diffusion would take. Investigations are presented for t...
متن کاملAcoustically Driven Microfluidic Micromotor for Lab-on-a-microdisc
We report on the implementation of a novel surface acoustic wave driven fluid-coupled rotational micromotor. A pair of opposing surface acoustic waves were generated on a Lithium Niobate substrate, geometrically tailored to asymmetrically enter the water fluid coupling layer. This generated high rotational velocities in the fluid coupling layer and subsequently the disc. Rotation of a 5 mm diam...
متن کاملPhononic crystal structures for acoustically driven microfluidic manipulations.
The development of microfluidic systems is often constrained both by difficulties associated with the chip interconnection to other instruments and by limitations imposed by the mechanisms that can enable fluid movement and processing. Surface acoustic wave (SAW) devices have shown promise in allowing samples to be manipulated, although designing complex fluid operations involves using multiple...
متن کاملA chip-to-chip nanoliter microfluidic dispenser.
A high-throughput microfluidic device is developed to handle liquid dispensation in nanoliter range. The dispenser system shows no cross-contamination between the microwells, indicating its great potential in large-scale screening experiments. An array of 115 nl PCR reactions, as well as the single channel addressable chip demonstrate the high flexibility and wide applications of this novel sys...
متن کاملConnecting microfluidic chips using a chemically inert, reversible, multichannel chip-to-world-interface.
In this paper we present a reusable, chemically inert, multichannel Chip-to-World-Interface (CWI). The concept of this interface is based on a force fit connection similar to the hollow screw connectors known from high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) instruments. It allows contamination free connection of up to 100 thermoplastic tubes to microfluidic chips made from various materials e...
