Micronit has developed a special proprietary technique to integrate electrodes in her glass chips, e.g. inside channels and reservoirs. The electrodes inside of fluidic channels are used for example for electrical impedance spectrometry, contact or contactless conductivity detection, amperometric detection, electrical heating and temperature sensing. Electrodes inside fluidic compartments are mainly used to apply high voltages to generate electroosmotic flow or to perform electrophoresis. Electrodes can be integrated in between two glass or silicon layers or placed on the top of the chip. Also thin insulating layers between electrodes and fluidic channels can be applied.
Unique technology
Micronit
Microfluidics has a unique strong market position in integrating electrodes. As
we use masking techniques to define and position electrodes, almost any design
is possible. Consequently, complex high resolution patterns can be created.
