Outline of Final Research Achievements |
As a principal component of small-sized advanced external stimulation responsive drug delivery systems, a novel ac electroosmotic micropump using a plate-cylinder electrode array was proposed and developed. First, the micropump using a pair of plate and cylinder electrodes was proposed and characterized by simulation based on finite element method. Second, the micropump using a plate-cylinder electrode array was proposed, fabricated using micro electroforming, and characterized experimentally. Third, higher output power due to miniaturization of cylinder electrodes was experimentally confirmed. Finally, higher output power due to electric field modification by adding electrodes was investigated by simulation and experiments. A part of fundamental technologies to realize small-sized advanced external stimulation responsive drug delivery systems was established.
