Abstract

The invention discloses a self-powered micro-fluidic chip and a manufacturing method thereof. A piezoelectric one-dimensional nano-material is utilized to collect tiny mechanical energy in the environment and convert the tiny mechanical energy into electric energy, and the electric potential energy is output to a sensitive unit so as to build the self-powered micro-fluidic chip. The micro-fluidic chip is divided into four layers, the undermost layer is a quartz glass substrate, a layer of exploring electrode is arranged on the quartz glass substrate, a layer of KNN nanofibers is arranged on the exploring electrode, and the uppermost layer is a PDMS cover plate with a PDMS microchannel. The manufacturing method of the self-powered micro-fluidic chip comprises the following steps: photo-etching, sputtering and stripping a substrate to produce an exploring electrode, adopting the electrospinning method to prepare potassium sodium niobate nanofibers in a large area on the exploring electrode, and then performing bonding on a PDMS microchannel and the substrate.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a microfluidic chip with a self-powered function and a manufacturing method thereof, in particular to a method for manufacturing a self-powered microfluidic chip based on the piezoelectric power generation effect, and belongs to the technical field of inorganic nano functional materials and microfluidics . Background technique [0002] Microfluidic technology is also called lab-on-a-chip. Using this technology, the basic operations involved in the field of biochemistry, such as sample preparation, reaction, separation and detection, can be integrated on a chip of a few square centimeters or even smaller. Compared with traditional analysis and testing platforms, the advantages of microfluidic chips lie in the integration of functions, low consumption of detection samples, and rapid sample detection. The electrical transport properties of semiconductor nanowires are very sensitive to biomolecules and heavy metal ions, which can...
