Experiments on the Passive Capillary Flow of Aqueous Ethanol in Sudden Expansion Microchannels towards the Applications in Nanofluidics and Nanoelectromechanical Systems
Abstract: In this work, total three individual sudden expansion microchannels are designed and fabricated by maskless lithography, hot embossing lithography and direct bonding technique inside the cleanroom laboratory. Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) is used as the selected polymer to fabricate these microchannels. Aqueous ethanol (15% ethanol, 85% dyed water) is prepared and used as dyed working liquid. Surface-driven (passive) capillary flow of prepared working liquid is recorded by a CMOS camera corresponding to …

Short Review on Nanofluidics with the Experimental Demonstration on Microfluidic Capillary Flow inside Microchannel Bends
Abstract: In this research work, author has presented a short review on nanofluidics. Total three individual microchannel bends as microfluidic devices are designed, fabricated and tested in this experimental work using author’s own hands-on completely. Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) is the selected polymeric material to fabricate these microfluidic devices. Dyed water is prepared as working liquid to test these microfluidic devices. According to this experimental study, the surface-driven microfluidic flow of dyed water …
