Stacked thin-film electrode electroosmotic pump

A thin, wearable or implantable electroosmotic pump driving fluid through a high-density array of via holes, offering customisable, low-profile drug delivery and diagnostic sampling with laser fabrication.

Applications: Wearable drug delivery systems, transdermal or subcutaneous therapies, continues monitoring and diagnostic sampling, high-density microfluidic integration

Features Benefits
Laser micromachining fabrication process Fabricated entirely through femtosecond laser micromachining, the device enables controlled fluid transport for drug delivery and sampling with excellent scalability
A wearable or implantable electroosmotic pump based on a stacked sequence of thin-film electrodes separated by polymer interlayers Instead of embedded microfluidics, the pump drives fluid through a high-density array of via holes exposed at the electrode surface, offering low-thickness, highly versatile, and easily customisable design
Low overall thickness and flexible materials Ensures ease of installation and comfort for implantable or wearable use
Low flow rate operation Allows precise dosing and sampling for sensitive medical needs
