Problems solved by technology

The conventional electrode manufacturing method is to use the traditional photolithography process to coat the substrate, and its disadvantages are: (1) high requirements for mask precision, requiring extremely large coating equipment, complex photolithography and coating processes; (2) electrode fabrication After being embedded into the channel, extremely high channel alignment technology is required, and the product scrap rate is high; (3) the thickness of the coating film is generally much smaller than the channel height, and the fluid in the channel is often not in the effective area of ​​the electric field or cannot provide a uniform field The strong distributed electric field has no obvious effect on increasing the field strength and generating three-dimensional field strength
