Often a relatively large support is needed for the desired power, thus limiting the capability of system miniaturization and integration. The surface tension is the only mechanism for driving the fluids through the microchannel. The channel of this mixer is designed to have no sidewalls with the liquid being confined to flow between a bottom hydrophilic stripe and a fully covered hydrophobic substrate. It is found from theoretical analysis and experiments data that for a given channel width, the flow rate solely due to capillary pumping can be maximized at an optimal channel height. The flow rate is in the order of nanoliters per second, for example, the flow rate is 0.65 nL s−1 at the optimal channel height 13 μm, given the channel width 100 μm. It is most crucial to this power-free mixing device that two liquid species must be well mixed. For this purpose, asymmetric staggered grooved cavities are optimally arranged on the bottom substrate of the channel, which can generate three-dimensional helical recirculation and let two different liquid species mixing efficiently. In the experiment, the fluid can be achieved fully mixing within 1.3 cm. his device has also been applied to whole blood to analyze the characteristics of blood in a microchannel at different sloping angles. The channel is determined by a bottom hydrophilic stripe on a glass substrate for the purpose of cost effective. It is observed that increasing the sloping angle from (downward flow) to (upward flow) increases the blood flow rate monotonically. The trend of the velocity of blood flow under various sloping angles is totally opposite to that of the DI water. These peculiar behaviors on the micro scale are explained by a dynamic model that establishes the balance among the inertial, surface tension, gravitational, and frictional forces. The frictional force is further related to the effective hematocrit. The model is used to calculate the frictional force from experimental data, and thus the corresponding hematocrit, which is smaller when the blood flows upward. n order to enhance the driven efficiency of this design, a superhydrophobic surface was considered to replace the original Teflon surface. We can find out the optimal fabrication parameters of utilizing induced couple plasma method, which can successfully generate compact silicon grass on the bottom. This structure can sustain DI water on the grass top and keep the contact angle around . And the average velocity is 1.21 times that of the original design from experimental results. To make a thorough investigation, when fluid flowing in the hydrophilic channel, it may contact with Teflon surface on both sides, thus produce friction force. Nevertheless, as for the superhydrophobic surface, it can form stable air cushion to isolate fluid; therefore, it will effectively reduce the friction force from both sides, and improve the driven efficiency.摘要 bstract 一章 導論 1 1.1. 研究動機 1 1.2. 流體驅動力 3 1.3. 微液體混合器 6 1.4. 血液之理論與生物晶片之應用 15 1.5. 製備超疏水表面 22 1.6. 章節概述 32二章 理論基礎 34 2.1. 接觸角及相關參數 34 2.2. 超疏水介面 39 2.3. 表面張力驅動幫浦 45 2.4. 不對稱交錯式凹槽結構提升混合效能 52 2.5. 血液流動於微流道中受表面張力作用之理論計算 53三章 實驗設定與材料選擇 59 3.1. 表面張力致動式微液體混合器之設計 59 3.2. 表面張力驅動材料 62 3.2.1. 親水性材料之選擇 62 3.2.2. 疏水性材料之選擇 63 3.2.3. 乾蝕刻阻擋層之材料選擇 63 3.2.4. 墊高厚度之材料選擇 65 3.2.5. 工作流體之選擇 65 3.2.6. 螢光微粒之選擇 65 3.3. 血液於傾斜角度下流動之設計 66 3.4. 血液測試之材料選擇 67 3.4.1. 基底親水材料 68 3.4.2. 疏水材料之選擇 68 3.4.3. 實驗用血液之選擇 69四章 研究設備與製程步驟 70 4.1. 實驗設備 73 4.1.1. 電感耦合電漿蝕刻機(Induced Couple Plasma, ICP) 73 4.1.2. 螢光光學顯微鏡 74 4.1.3. 可調變角度之平台 75 4.1.4. 接觸角量測儀 75 4.1.5. 微注射幫浦 76 4.2. 表面張力微液體混合器之製程步驟 77 4.2.1. 流場流速之計算 83 4.2.2. 混合效率之判定 84 4.3. 血液於不同傾斜角下流動之製程步驟 84五章 結果與討論 90 5.1. 表面張力驅動之研究 90 5.2. 表面張力微液體混合器 91 5.2.1. 凹槽結構測試 91 5.2.2. 有無不對稱交錯式凹槽結構之比較 93 5.2.3. 不對稱交錯式凹槽結構之最佳化 96 5.3. 血液於不同傾斜角下之動態分析比較 107 5.3.1. 理論式分析 107 5.3.2. 血液於傾斜面上流動之動態分析 111 5.3.2. 血液於傾斜角度下流動,血容比之理論分析 118 5.4. 利用超疏水表面以提升驅動效能 122 5.4.1. 比較蝕刻氣體 與鈍化氣體 之通入時間 122 5.4.2. 比較線圈(coil)輸出功率 130 5.4.3. 比較蝕刻週期 131 5.4.4. 驅動效能之測試 133六章 結論與未來展望 136 6.1. 結論 136 6.2. 未來展望 138考文獻 139application/pdf7997378 bytesapplication/pdfen-US微流道表面張力疏水性親水性血容比血液流速矽草microchannelsurface tensionhydrophobichydrophilicblood flowsilicon grass毛細幫浦於微流道中傳輸與混合行為之研究:實驗與分析Investigation of Transport and Mixing in Microchannel Driven by Capillary Pumping:Experiments and Theoretical Analysisthesishttp://ntur.lib.ntu.edu.tw/bitstream/246246/184838/1/ntu-98-D92543012-1.pdf
