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 کاملHigh-density fabrication of normally closed microfluidic valves by patterned deactivation of oxidized polydimethylsiloxane.
The use of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) in microfluidic devices is extensive in academic research. One of the most fundamental treatments is to expose PDMS to plasma oxidation in order to render its surface temporarily hydrophilic and capable of permanent bonding. Here, we show that changes in the surface chemistry induced by plasma oxidation can spatially be counteracted very cleanly and reliab...
متن کاملRobust Fractional Order Control of Under-actuated Electromechanical System
This paper presents a robust fractional order controller for flexible-joint electrically driven robots under imperfect transformation of control space. The proposed approach is free from manipulator dynamics, thus free from problems associated with torque control strategy in the design and implementation. As a result, the proposed controller is simple, fast response and superior to the torque c...

متن کاملTorque-actuated valves for microfluidics.
This paper describes torque-actuated valves for controlling the flow of fluids in microfluidic channels. The valves consist of small machine screws (> or =500 microm) embedded in a layer of polyurethane cast above microfluidic channels fabricated in poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS). The polyurethane is cured photochemically with the screws in place; on curing, it bonds to the surrounding layer of ...
