摘要
A bubble-assisted electroosmotic (EO) micropump is proposed as a miniaturized actuating element to be integrated in a microfluidic chemical sensing system. In this device, a bubble is generated in a narrow channel to form a thin water sheet between the bubble and the wall. Due to the high surface-to-volume ratio of the water sheet, an efficient EO flow is realized at relatively low pumping voltages of 20-60 V without using a porous material. The direction and the flow rate of the EO flow depended on the polarity and the magnitude of the pumping voltage, and the highest flow rate of about +/- 500 pL/s was obtained at +/- 60 V. A bubble-assisted EO micropump was combined with a LAPS for measuring the pH value of a droplet with a volume of 1 nL. (C) 2017 Published by Elsevier B.V.
