Abstract:

A new method of bipolar field-effect control on DC electroosmosis（DCEO） is proposed from the perspective of electrodynamics. A mathematical model is established in thin-layer approximation and low-voltage limit to verify the feasibility of the bipolar DC-FFET structure for fluid electrodynamic manipulation at the micrometer scale. An integrated device design with two sets of side-by-side reverse polarity gate electrode pairs was used to construct a micro-device model for fully electrically driven analyte processing. By using a smaller gate voltage， an almost perfect liquid mixture can be obtained， resulting in less adverse effects at a small Dukhin number. This technology has great potential in the development of fully automatic liquid phase actuators in modern microfluidic systems.
