Stacked thin-film electrode electroosmotic pump

Image from Licence Details: Stacked thin-film electrode electroosmotic pump

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
