Problems solved by technology

Metals (such as platinum Pt, gold Au, etc.) are usually integrated in the form of a solid film on the chip substrate to form a micro heater by deposition, sputtering and other methods. The thickness of the metal film is often uneven, resulting in uneven heating temperature. question
In order to ensure the uniform thickness of the metal film, expensive production equipment and complex production processes are required, and the implementation method is relatively complicated

Abstract

The invention provides a micro heater, which belongs to the field of micro-electro-mechanical system. The micro heater includes a reaction chamber, a sample micro channel leading to the reaction chamber, and at least two circular-arc micro channels having the same radian. The reaction chamber is surrounded by the at least two circular-arc micro channels having the same radian. The at least two circular-arc micro channels are not directly contacted to each other and to the reaction chamber. Compared with the existing heating method by a metal film which is formed on a chip substrate material, the micro heater in embodiments of the invention is easy to produce and low in cost, and can be used in on-chip cell culture, on-chip protein thermal focusing, on-chip polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of micro-electromechanical systems, in particular to a micro heater. Background technique [0002] On-chip resistive heating is an important heating technology in the technical field of MEMS (English full name: Micro-Electro-Mechanical-Systems, Chinese translation: micro-electro-mechanical system), which is a compact structure, good integration and low energy consumption. Embedded heating method. This method usually uses a conductive medium as a micro-heater material to form an easily controllable resistive micro-heater integrated on a chip. [0003] Metal has good electrical and thermal conductivity, and it is widely used in micro heaters. Metals (such as platinum Pt, gold Au, etc.) are usually integrated in the form of a solid film on the chip substrate to form a micro heater by deposition, sputtering and other methods. The thickness of the metal film is often uneven, resulting in uneven heating temperature. ques...
