Problems solved by technology

[0005] The inventors have found that there are at least the following problems in the prior art: in the existing micro-total analysis system, the driving electrodes for driving the liquid droplets to move, and the photosensitive sensors for judging the information such as the position and composition of the liquid droplets need to be connected with their corresponding switch units ( Usually it is a switching transistor) to realize the control of the working state, and because there are higher requirements for the size and concentration accuracy of the droplet, it is necessary to achieve a high-resolution (PPI) design, but as mentioned above, due to the existence of two switches Transistor, switching transistor size occupies a large area, so the realization of high resolution will be limited

Abstract

The invention provides a microfluidic substrate, a driving method thereof and a miniaturized total analysis system. The microfluidic substrate provided by the invention comprises a substrate and a plurality of detection modules located on the substrate, wherein each detection module comprises a switching unit located on the substrate and a driving electrode connected with a signal output terminalof the corresponding switching unit; each detection module further comprises a light sensitizing unit located on the substrate; and either first poles or second poles of the light sensitizing units are connected with signal output terminals of the switching units. According to the microfluidic substrate provided by the invention, the corresponding driving electrode and the corresponding sensitizing unit of each detection module share one switching unit, so that compared with the prior art, more detection modules can be arranged on the microfluidic substrate of a unit area, and thus, the realization of the high-resolution microfluidic substrate is facilitated.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a microfluidic substrate, a driving method thereof, and a micro total analysis system. Background technique [0002] Micro-Total Analysis System (micro-Total Analysis System, Micro-Total Analysis System) [0003] The purpose is to maximize the transfer of the functions of the analysis laboratory to portable analysis equipment through the miniaturization and integration of chemical analysis equipment, and even integrate it into a chip with a small size. The ultimate goal is to realize the "personalization" and "home use" of analytical laboratories, so that analytical science and analytical instruments can be liberated from chemical laboratories and enter thousands of households. [0004] In the micro-total analysis system, it is possible to control the behavior of micro-droplet movement, separation, aggregation, chemical reaction, and biological detection. The droplet is moved to the specified position through the driving elec...
