Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of micro-fluidic control, and discloses a thermally-driven digital micro-fluidic chip, a manufacturing method and a working method thereof. The thermally-driven digital micro-fluidic chip comprises a first base plate, a second base plate, a capillary tube, a plurality of first electric-heating assemblies and a plurality of first switch elements, whereinthe second base plate is opposite to the first base plate; the capillary tube is arranged on the first base plate and / or the second base plate; the first electro-heating assemblies are arranged on the first base plate, and are distributed in a spaced mode in an extending direction of the capillary tube; and each first switch element is connected in a current loop in which one first electric-heating assembly is located to receive a control signal for controlling closing of the current loops on which the first electric-heating assemblies are located. In case of not arranging a water dredging layer on the inner surface of the capillary tube, liquid drops move in an oriented mode in the capillary tube for being recycled. Meanwhile, tension on the surfaces at the two sides of each liquid dropis changed by heating to drive the liquid drops to move, so that driving force is relatively great.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of microfluidics, in particular to a thermally driven digital microfluidic chip, a manufacturing method and a working method. Background technique [0002] Microfluidic chip technology integrates basic operation units such as sample preparation, reaction, separation, and detection onto a centimeter-scale chip. This technology greatly reduces the cost of samples and improves detection efficiency. It has been highly sought after in recent years and is widely used in biology, chemistry, medicine and other fields. [0003] At present, the mainstream microfluidic chip drive method is electrode drive, also called voltage digital microfluidic control. Voltage digital microfluidics is to place droplets in a capillary channel with a hydrophobic layer. With the help of electrowetting, a voltage is applied between the droplet and the electrode under the hydrophobic layer to increase the position of the electrode droplet and...
