Abstract

The invention discloses a low-pressure electroosmosis pump based on an ultra-thin nano porous film. The pump comprises a first cavity chamber, a second cavity chamber and a nano porous thin film arranged in the middle of the first cavity chamber and the second cavity chamber, wherein the first cavity chamber and the second cavity chamber are filled with electrolyte solutions, and a first driving electrode and a second driving electrode are respectively mounted in the first cavity chamber and the second cavity chamber; and the nano porous thin film is a composite film of a nano porous silicon dioxide film and a silicon nitride micron porous film. The low-pressure electroosmosis pump is simple in structure, easy to operate and easy to realize, and the electroosmosis pump can drive fluid to move under a driving voltage of 0.2V, so that no bubble is generated in the reaction, and the problem that the efficiency is reduced or even the fluid stops transmitting due to the blocking of pore channels by bubbles does not need to be considered.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of liquid delivery, and in particular relates to a low-voltage electroosmotic pump based on a nanoporous film. Background technique [0002] As a self-equipped device in the microfluidic system, the micropump is very important to push the corresponding fluid to move. So far, various micropumps have been used in microfluidic systems, and can be divided into mechanical micropumps and non-mechanical micropumps according to whether they contain mechanical moving parts. Among them, the mechanical pump provides the driving force for fluid flow according to the deformation of the micro-membrane. The advantage of this pump is that it can drive any liquid, but the disadvantage is that the voltage required to drive it is too high (-100-200V) and the resulting flow is pulsed rather than continuous. Compared with mechanical micropumps, non-mechanical micropumps do not have moving parts, so for the entire microfluidic ...
