Embodiment 1

[0015] For the preparation of polymer (PDMS) chips, Dow Corning's sylgard184A solution and sylgard184B solution are fully mixed at a volume ratio of 10:1, and the mixture is placed in a vacuum box at 6.666Pa (0.05Torr) to remove air bubbles, and poured on the designed chip. On the silicon mold of the pattern, shake the glue at a speed of 1000rpm for 90 seconds to obtain a chip with a thickness of 2mm. The chip was placed in the working chamber with a distance of 60 mm between the chip and the Ti target. Vacuum to 159.9864 Pa (1.2×10 -3 Torr), Ar gas ions were introduced to bombard the target, the starting current was 2.5A, and the power was 3KW. After the discharge voltage is stabilized, the reaction gas oxygen is introduced, the energy of oxygen ions is 20KeV, and the volume ratio of oxygen to Ar gas is 1:4.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for modifying the surface of a polymer microfluidic chip, specifically, a sputtering TiO 2 The invention discloses a method for modifying the surface of a polymer microfluidic chip, which belongs to the technical field of microelectromechanical systems. Background technique [0002] Although polymer materials have been applied in microfluidic chips, their applications are limited due to some inherent surface properties. The wettability of polymer materials is mostly poor, and their static contact angle with water is greater than 90°, so operations such as sample injection, washing, and extraction of polymer chips are relatively difficult. Negative pressure or syringe pumps are required to introduce reagents. Air bubbles are easily generated during the process, which can negatively affect the biological reaction. Protein adsorption or cell adsorption will occur on the polymer surface, which will bring difficulties to ...
