Problems solved by technology

Among them, the reversible bonding mainly uses the certain adhesion and high flatness of the PDMS surface to directly bond two PDMS substrates, but its bonding strength is poor and it is easy to leak; the irreversible bonding mainly uses surface activation bonds. The bonding method is that the surfaces of the two PDMS substrates are treated with plasma activation or ultraviolet irradiation for a certain period of time and then bonded to achieve permanent sealing. Although the bonding strength of the chip obtained by this method is high, it requires expensive plasma. Generator or specialized ultraviolet irradiation equipment, and the processing process often takes about tens of minutes, which often becomes the main step that restricts the entire chip preparation process
