We report an elastomer-based electrostatic microvalve that was fabricated using replica molding, micro-transfer printing, and plasma bonding. The microvalve can be actuated with an electric potential of ∼220 V and can withstand pressures up to 3 kPa. Sixteen independentlyoperated valves were integrated on a single chip and operated with portable electronics.[2013-0101]
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
