Problems solved by technology

In addition, in order to avoid the short-circuit problem of the multi-layer electrode wire layer, PI film is additionally used as the insulating layer to separate the electrode and the wire. However, due to the weak physical strength of the PI film, it is extremely easy to be damaged, which will also bring difficulties to the processing technology.

Embodiment Construction

[0024] In order to make the technical means and effects realized by the present invention easy to understand, the present invention will be described in detail below in conjunction with the embodiments and accompanying drawings.

[0025]

[0026] In this embodiment, the basic function of the digital microfluidic chip is to control a small amount of liquid droplets. The amount of liquid droplets needs to be controlled precisely, and there are various limitations. In order to increase the flexibility and control functions of the chip, it is necessary to control the liquid The control accuracy and breadth of the drop volume (droplet types of different sizes) are improved. Since the size of the driving droplet is determined by the size of the driving electrode and the gap between the plates, this embodiment forms an inkjet micro-precision circuit on the dielectric layer, avoiding the concave-convex wave scale of the dielectric layer / hydrophobic layer on the electrode layer with d...
