Yield Enhancement of Digital Microfluidics-Based Biochips Using Space Redundancy and Local Reconfiguration [PDF]

Dans Design, Automation and Test in Europe - DATE'05, Munich : Allemagne (2005), 2007
As microfluidics-based biochips become more complex, manufacturing yield will have significant influence on production volume and product cost. We propose an interstitial redundancy approach to enhance the yield of biochips that are based on droplet-based microfluidics.

Regularized lattice Boltzmann Multicomponent models for low Capillary and Reynolds microfluidics flows [PDF]

arXiv, 2017
We present a regularized version of the color gradient lattice Boltzmann (LB) scheme for the simulation of droplet formation in microfluidic devices of experimental relevance. The regularized version is shown to provide computationally efficient access to Capillary number regimes relevant to droplet generation via microfluidic devices, such as flow ...

Modular and extendable 1D-simulation for microfluidic devices. [PDF]

Sci Rep
Microfluidic devices have been the subject of considerable attention in recent years. The development of novel microfluidic devices, their evaluation, and their validation requires simulations. While common methods based on Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) can be time-consuming, 1D simulation provides an appealing alternative that leads to efficient ...

Diamond quantum sensors in microfluidics technology [PDF]

Biomicrofluidics 17, 054107 (2023), 2023
Diamond quantum sensing is an emerging technology for probing multiple physico-chemical parameters in the nano- to micro-scale dimensions within diverse chemical and biological contexts. Integrating these sensors into microfluidic devices enables the precise quantification and analysis of small sample volumes in microscale channels. In this Perspective,
