    Background
    [001] Microfluidics is an increasingly important technology that applies to a variety of disciplines including engineering, physics, chemistry, microtechnology and biotechnology. Microfluidics involves the study of small volumes of fluid and how to manipulate, control and use such small volumes of fluid in various microfluidic systems and devices such as microfluidic chips. For example, microfluidic biochips (referred to as “lab-on-chip”) are used in the field of molecular biology to integrate assay operations for purposes such as analyzing enzymes and DNA, detecting biochemical toxins and pathogenic organisms, diagnose diseases, etc.
    [002] The beneficial use of many microfluidic systems depends in part on the ability to correctly introduce fluids into microfluidic devices and control the flow of fluids through the devices. In general, an inability to manage the introduction and flow of fluid into microfluidic devices on a micrometric scale limits its application outside a laboratory facility where its usefulness in environmental and medical analysis is especially valuable. Previous methods for introducing and controlling fluid in microfluidic devices included the use of external equipment and various types of pumps that are not micrometric in scale. These earlier solutions have disadvantages related, for example, to their large size, lack of versatility, and complexity, all of which can limit the functionality of microfluidic systems by implementing such microfluidic devices.

    [0018] As noted above, previous methods for managing fluid in microfluidic devices included the use of external equipment and pump mechanisms that are not of micrometric scale. These solutions have disadvantages that can limit the range of applications for microfluidic systems. For example, syringes and external pneumatic pumps are sometimes used to inject fluid and generate fluid flow within microfluidic devices. However, external pneumatic syringes and pumps are bulky, difficult to handle and program, and have unreliable connections. These types of pumps are also of limited versatility by the number of external fluid connections that the microfluidic device / chip can accommodate.
    [0019] Another type of pump is a capillary pump that works on the principle of a fluid filling a set of thin capillaries. As such, the pump provides only simple throughput. Since the pump is completely passive, the fluid flow is "hardware designed" in the design and cannot be reprogrammed. Electrophoretic pumps can also be used, but require specialized coating, complex three-dimensional geometries and high operating voltages. All of these properties limit the applicability of this type of pump. Additional pump types include peristaltic and rotary pumps. However, these pumps have moving parts and are difficult to miniaturize.
    [0020] The configurations of the present invention improve over previous solutions for fluid management in microfluidic systems and devices, generally through improved microfluidic devices that allow complex and versatile microfluidic networks having inertial pumps integrated with fluid actuators. The disclosed microfluidic networks can have monodimensional, bidimensional, and / or three-dimensional topologies, and can therefore be of considerable complexity. Each fluid channel edge within a network can contain one, more than one, or no fluid actuators. Fluid actuators integrated within microfluidic network channels in asymmetric locations can generate both unidirectional and bidirectional fluid flow through the channels. The selective activation of multiple fluid actuators located asymmetrically against the ends of multiple microfluidic channels in a network allows the generation of arbitrary and / or directionally controlled fluid flow patterns within the network. In addition, temporal control over the operation or mechanical movement of a fluid actuator allows for directional control of fluid flow through a fluid network channel. Therefore, in some configurations, precise control over the forward and reverse strokes (ie, compressive and traction fluid displacements) of a single fluid actuator can provide bidirectional fluid flow within a network channel and generate flow patterns arbitrary and / or directionally controlled fluid flows within the network.
    [0021] Fluid actuators can be driven by a variety of actuator mechanisms such as thermal bubble resistor actuators, piezo membrane actuators, electrostatic membrane actuators (MEMS), mechanically / impact driven actuators, moving coil actuators, magnetic-restrictive actuators, and so on. Fluid actuators can be integrated into microfluidic systems using conventional microfabrication processes. This allows for complex microfluidic devices having arbitrary pressure and flow distributions. Microfluidic devices can also include several integrated active elements such as resistive heaters, Peltier coolers, physical, chemical and biological sensors, light sources, and combinations thereof. Microfluidic devices may or may not be connected to external fluid reservoirs. The advantages of the disclosed microfluidic devices and networks generally include a reduced amount of equipment needed to operate the microfluidic systems, which increases mobility and expands the range of potential applications.
    [0022] In an exemplary configuration, a microfluidic system includes a fluidic channel coupled at both ends with a reservoir. A fluid actuator is located asymmetrically within the channel creating a long and short side of the channel that has equal inertial properties. The fluid actuator is to generate a wave that propagates against both ends of the channel and produces a unidirectional liquid flow of fluid through the channel. A controller can selectively activate the fluid actuator to control the unidirectional fluid flow through the channel. In one implementation, the fluid actuator is a first fluid actuator located against a first end of the channel, and a second fluid actuator is located asymmetrically within the channel against a second end of the channel. The controller can activate the first fluid actuator to cause liquid fluid flow through the channel in a first direction from the first end to the second end, and can activate the second fluid actuator to cause liquid fluid flow through the channel in a second direction from the second end to the first end.
    [0023] In another exemplary configuration, a microfluidic system includes a network of microfluidic channels having first and second ends. The channel ends are variedly coupled together at end-channel intersections. At least one channel is a pump channel having a short side and a long side distinguished by a fluid actuator located asymmetrically between opposite ends of the pump channel. The fluid actuator is for generating a wave propagating against the opposite ends of the pump channel that produces a unidirectional liquid flow of fluid through the pump channel. In one implementation, a second fluid actuator integrated within the channel is located asymmetrically against a second end of the pump channel, and a controller can selectively activate the first and second fluid actuators to generate bidirectional fluid flow through the network. In another implementation, additional fluid actuators are located asymmetrically against the first and second ends of multiple microfluidic channels and a controller can selectively activate the fluid actuators to induce fluid flow patterns controlled directionally across the entire network.
    [0024] In another configuration, a microfluidic network includes microfluidic channels in the foreground to facilitate two-dimensional fluid flow through the network within the foreground. A microfluidic fluid channel in the foreground extends into a second plane to cross and avoid intersection with another microfluidic channel in the foreground, which facilitates three-dimensional fluid flow through the network within the foreground and background. An active element is integrated within at least one microfluidic channel. Fluid actuators are integrated asymmetrically within at least one microfluidic channel, and a controller can selectively activate fluid actuators to induce directionally controlled fluid flow patterns within the network.
    [0025] In another exemplary configuration, a method for generating liquid fluid flow in a microfluidic network includes generating compressive and tensile fluid displacements that are temporarily asymmetric in duration. The displacements are generated using a fluid actuator that is integrated asymmetrically within a microfluidic channel.
    [0026] In another exemplary configuration, a microfluidic system includes a microfluidic network. A fluid actuator is integrated in an asymmetrical location within a network channel to generate compressive and tensile fluid displacements of different durations within the channel. A controller regulates the direction of fluid flow through the channel by controlling the durations of compressive fluid displacements and traction of the fluid actuator.
    [0027] In another exemplary configuration, a method for controlling fluid flow in a microfluidic network includes generating asymmetric displacements in a microfluidic channel with a fluid actuator located asymmetrically within the channel. Illustrative configurations
    [0028] Figure 1 illustrates a microfluidic system 100 suitable for incorporating microfluidic devices, networks and inertial pumps as disclosed herein, according to a disclosure configuration. The microfluidic system 100 can be, for example, an assay system, a microelectronic cooling system, a nucleic acid amplification system such as a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) system, or any system that involves the use , manipulation and / or control of small volumes of fluid. The microfluidic system 100 typically implements a microfluidic device 102 such as a microfluidic chip (e.g., a "lab-on-a-chip") to allow a wide range of microfluidic applications. A microfluidic device 102 generally includes one or more fluidic networks 103 having channels with inertial pumps to circulate fluid through the entire network. In general, the structures and components of a microfluidic device 102 can be manufactured using conventional integrated circuit microfabrication techniques such as electroforming, laser ablation, anisotropic engraving, sparking, dry engraving, photolithography, casting, molding, stamping, machining, rotation coating and lamination. A microfluidic system 100 can also include an external fluid reservoir 104 to supply and / or circulate fluid to the microfluidic device 102. The microfluidic system 100 also includes an electronic controller 106 and a power source 108 to supply power to the microfluidic device 102 , electronic controller 106, and other electrical components that may be part of system 100.
    [0029] Electronic controller 106 typically includes a processor, firmware [resident boot program], software, one or more memory components including volatile and non-volatile memory components, and other electronics to communicate with a microfluidic control device 102 and fluid reservoir 104. Consequently, electronic controller 106 is programmable and typically includes one or more software modules stored in memory and executable to control microfluidic device 102. Such modules may include, for example, a selection of fluid actuator , synchronization and frequency module 110, and an asymmetric fluid actuator operation module 112, as shown in figure 1.
    [0030] Electronic controller 106 can also receive data 114 from a host system, such as a computer, and temporarily store data 114 in memory. Typically, data 114 is sent to the microfluidic system 100 along an electronic, infrared, optical, or other information transfer path. The data 114 represents, for example, executable instructions and / or parameters for use alone or in conjunction with other executable instructions in software / firmware modules stored in the electronic controller 106 to control fluid flow within the microfluidic device 102. Various software and data 114 executables in the programmable controller 106 allow for selective activation of fluid actuators integrated within network channels of a microfluidic device 102, as well as precise control over the timing, frequency and duration of compressive and traction displacements of such activation. The readily modifiable (that is, programmable) control over fluid actuators allows for an abundance of fluid flow patterns readily available for a given microfluidic device 102.
    [0031] Figure 2 shows examples of one-dimensional (ie, linear) unidirectional closed fluidic networks 103 (A, B, C, D) having integrated inertial pumps 200 suitable for implementation within a microfluidic device 102, according to configurations of disclosure. As used in this document: a “closed” network means a network that has no connections to an external fluid reservoir; a “unidirectional” network means a network that generates fluid flow in only one direction; and, a single-dimensional network means a linear network. An inertial pump 200 generally includes a pump channel 206 with an integrated fluid actuator 202, arranged asymmetrically against one end of the pump channel 206. Note that in some configurations as discussed below, the network channel 204 itself serves as a flow channel. pump 206. Each of the exemplary inertial pumps 200 of figure 2 has a fluid pump actuator 202 for moving fluid through pump channel 206 between network channels 204 (1 and 2). In this example, each network channel 204 serves as a fluid reservoir at each end of pump channel 206. Although networks 103 (A, B, C, D) are monodimensional (i.e., linear) with fluid to flow from one end to end, the dashed lines shown at the ends of network channels 204 (1 and 2) are intended to indicate that in some configurations network channels 204 may extend further as part of a larger network 103 that has dimensions additional (i.e., two and three dimensions) where network channels 204 intercept other network channels as part of such a larger network 103. Examples of such larger networks are discussed below.
    [0032] The four inertial pumps 200 shown in networks A, B, C and D, of figure 2, each contain an integrated simple fluid pump actuator 202 located asymmetrically within the pump channels 206 against one end of the pump channel 206. Fluid actuators 202 in pumps 200 of networks A and C are passive, or not activated, as indicated by the legend provided in figure 2. Therefore, there is no liquid flow of fluid through the pump channels 206 between the network channels. 1 and 2 (204). However, fluid actuators 202 in pumps 200 of networks B and D are active, which generates liquid fluid flow through pump channels 206 between network channels 1 and 2 (204).
    [0033] Fluidic diodicity (ie unidirectional flow of fluid) is achieved in the active inertial pumps 200 of networks B and D through the asymmetric location of the fluid actuators 200 within the pump channels 206. When the width of the inertial pump channel 206 is less than the width of the network channels 204 to which it is connected (eg, network channels 1 and 2), the drive energy of the inertial pump 200 is primarily determined by the properties of the pump channel 206 (ie i.e., the width of the pump channel and the asymmetry of the fluid actuator 202 within the pump channel). The exact location of a fluid actuator 202 within the pump channel 206 may vary slightly, but in any case it will be asymmetric with respect to the length of the pump channel 206. Thus, the fluid actuator 202 will be located on one side of the point center of the pump channel 206. With respect to a given fluid actuator 202, its asymmetric placement creates a short side of the pump channel 206 and a long side of the pump channel 206. Therefore, the asymmetric location of the active fluid actuator 202 in the inertial pump 200 of network B closest to the widest network channel 2 (204) is the basis for fluidic diodicity within the pump channel 206 which causes the liquid flow of fluid from network channel 2 to the network channel 1 (that is, from right to left). Likewise, the location of the active fluid actuator 202 on pump 200 of network D on the short side of pump channel 206 causes the liquid flow of fluid from network channel 1 to network channel 2 (that is, from left to on the right). The asymmetrical location of the fluid actuator 202 within the pump channel 206 creates an inertial mechanism that triggers fluidic diodicity (liquid fluid flow) within the pump channel 206. Fluid actuator 202 generates a wave propagating within the flow channel pump 206 that pushes fluid in two opposite directions along the pump channel 206. When the fluid actuator 202 is located asymmetrically within the pump channel 206, there is a liquid flow of fluid through the pump channel 206. The most massive part of the fluid (typically contained on the longest side of the pump channel 206) has greater mechanical inertia at the end of a forward fluid actuator pump stroke. Therefore, this fluid body reverses direction more slowly than the liquid on the shorter side of the channel. The fluid on the shorter side of the channel has more time to capture mechanical moment during the inverted stroke of the fluid actuator pump. Therefore, at the end of the inverted stroke, the fluid on the shortest side of the channel has a greater mechanical moment than the fluid on the longest side of the channel. As a result, the liquid flow is typically in the direction from the shortest side to the longest side of the pump channel 206. Since the liquid flow is a consequence of the equal inertial properties of two fluid elements (i.e., the sides short and long channel), this type of micro pump is called an inertial pump.
    [0034] Figure 3 shows examples of closed one-dimensional bidirectional fluidic networks (i.e., linear) 103 (A, B) having integrated inertial pumps 200 suitable for implementation within a microfluidic device 102 as discussed above with reference to figure 2, according to disclosure settings. Instead of a fluid pump actuator 202, the exemplary inertial pumps 200 of figure 3 have two fluid pump actuators 202 for moving fluid through and between network channels 204. The two fluid actuators 202 are located asymmetrically against opposite sides from each pump channel 206. Having a fluid actuator 202 on each side of the pump channel 206 allows the generation of liquid fluid flow through channel 206 in any direction depending on which fluid actuator 202 is active. Thus, in the inertial pump 200 of the network A of figure 3, the active fluid actuator 202 is located asymmetrically against the right side of the pump channel 206 next to the network channel 2, and the liquid flow of fluid generated is on the right side of the pump channel 206 (the short side) to the left side (the long side), which moves fluid from the network channel 2 towards the network channel 1. Similarly, in the inertial pump 200 of the network B, the fluid actuator active 202 is located asymmetrically against the left side of the pump channel 206 next to the network channel 1, and the net fluid flow generated is from the left side of the pump channel 206 (again, the short side) to the right side (the long side), which moves fluid from the network channel 1 towards the network channel 2.
    [0035] As noted above, controller 106 is programmable to control a microfluidic device 102 in a variety of modes. As an example, with respect to the inertial pumps 200 of figure 2 which each have a simple integrated fluid pump actuator 202, module 110 (i.e., fluid actuator selection, timing and frequency module 110) on controller 106 allows selective activation of any number of actuators 202 on any number of pump channels 206 across an entire network 103. Thus, although networks A, B, C, and D are mono-dimensional, having inertial pumps 200 with only one fluid actuator 202, in different configurations they can be part of larger networks where the selective activation of other actuators 202 in other interconnected network channels 204 can allow control over the direction of fluid flow across a larger network 103. The Module 110 also allows control over the timing and frequency of activation of fluid actuators 202 to manage when liquid fluid flow is generated and the fluid flow rate. With respect to the inertial pumps 200 of figure 3, which have two fluid actuators 202 located asymmetrically against opposite sides of each pump channel 206, module 110 of controller 106 allows for selective activation of the two actuators within a single pump channel 206 in addition to the selective activation of any number of actuators on any number of other pump channels across an entire larger network 103. The ability to selectively activate fluid actuators in this way allows control over the direction of fluid flow within the individual network 204, as well as through an entire expanded network 103.
    [0036] Figure 4 shows an example of a one-dimensional bidirectional open fluidic network 103 having an integrated inertial pump 200 suitable for implementation within a fluidic device 102, according to a disclosure configuration. As used in this document, an “open” network is a network that connects to at least one external fluid reservoir such as reservoir 400. When connecting to a fluid reservoir 400, in the same way as connecting to the channels of network 204, if the width of the inertial pump 200 is less than the width of the fluid reservoir 400 to which it is connected, the driving energy of the inertial pump 300 is primarily determined by the properties of the pump channel 206 (that is, the width of the pump channel and asymmetry of fluid actuator 202 within the pump channel). Thus, in this example, while one end of the pump channel 206 connects to an external fluid reservoir 400 and the other end of the pump channel 206 connects to a network channel 204 (channel 1), both the reservoir 400 and the network channel 204 serves as fluid reservoirs with respect to the motive energy of inertial pump 200. In other implementations of such an "open" network 103, both ends of pump channel 206 can be readily connected with external fluid reservoirs 400. A asymmetric location of the fluid actuator 202 in the pump 200 of the network 103 on the short side of the pump channel 206 near the wider fluid reservoir 400 is the basis for fluidic diodicity within the pump channel 206 which causes a liquid flow of fluid from the reservoir 400 for network channel 1 (that is, from right to left). Note that a reservoir 400 can be connected to a network 103 by more than one pump channel 206, or with one or more network channels 205 with or without any inertial pumps. In general, reservoirs can facilitate a variety of fluidic applications by providing storage and access to various fluids such as biological samples to be analyzed, waste collectors, DNA building block containers and so on.
    [0037] The networks 103 within a microfluidic device 102 can have monodimensional, bidimensional, or three-dimensional topologies, as noted above. For example, networks 103 in figures 2 and 3 discussed above are shown as linear, or one-dimensional networks 103. However, network channels 204 within these networks are also discussed in terms of potentially being connected to other network channels as part of larger networks 103. Figures 5-7 show examples of such larger networks 103, showing two-dimensional network topologies.
    [0038] Figure 5 shows an example of a two-dimensional closed fluidic network 103 illustrating flow patterns (A, B, C, D) generated by different activation regimes by the selective activation of simple fluid pump actuators 202 within the network 103 , according to a disclosure configuration. The two-dimensional network 103 has four fluid pump actuators 202 and eight network channels (or edges) separated by five vertices or intersections of channels (referred to as 1, 2, 3, 4, 5). In this configuration, inertial pumps include fluid pump actuators 202 integrated within network channels 204. Therefore, separate pump channels as discussed above in the previous networks are not shown. The network channels 204 themselves serve as pump channels for fluid pump actuators 202. The narrower widths of network channels 204 connected at intersections of wider channels (vertices 1, 2, 3, 4, 5) allow for motive energy of the inertial pump, which is based on the asymmetrical placement of the fluid actuators 202 within the narrower widths of the network channels 204.
    [0039] Referring to the network 103 in figure 5 showing the fluid flow pattern A, the active network actuator 202 (see the legend in figure 5 identifying the active fluid actuator) generates liquid fluid flow in one direction from vertex 3 to vertex 5, as indicated by the liquid flow direction arrow. At vertex 5 the fluid flow divides and follows different directions through the network channels extending from vertex 5 to vertices 1, 2, and 4. After that, the fluid flows back to vertex 3 from vertices 1 , 2 and 4, as indicated by the liquid flow direction arrows. Therefore, the selective activation of the simple fluid pump actuator 202, close to the apex 3 as shown in flow pattern A results in a particular directional flow of fluid across the entire network.
    [0040] In contrast, selective activations of other individual fluid pump actuators 202 as shown in flow patterns B, C and D result in totally different directional fluid flows through network 103. For example, referring to the network 103 of figure 5 showing the fluid flow pattern B, the active fluid actuator 202 generates liquid fluid flow in a direction from vertex 1 to vertex 5, as indicated by the liquid flow direction arrow. At vertex 5 the fluid flow divides and follows different directions through the network channels extending from vertex 5 to vertices 2, 3 and 4. After that, the fluid flows back to vertex 1 from vertices 2, 3 and 4, as indicated by the liquid flow direction arrows. Different directional fluid flows apply similarly to flow patterns C and D. Consequently, a programmable controller 105 in a microfluidic system 100 can readily adjust fluid flow patterns within a particular network 103 of a microfluidic device 102 through selective activation. of a simple fluid pump actuator 202 within the network.
    [0041] Figure 6 shows an example of a two-dimensional closed fluidic network 103 illustrating fluid flow patterns (E, F, G, H, I, J) generated by different pump activation regimes through the selective activation of two actuators fluid pump 202 simultaneously within the network 103, according to a disclosure configuration. The two-dimensional network 103 is the same as shown in figure 4, and has four fluid pump actuators 202 with eight network channels (or edges) separated by five vertices or intersections of channels (referred to as 1, 2, 3, 4, 5). The selective activation of two fluid pump actuators 202 simultaneously as shown in the fluid flow patterns (E, F, G, H, I, J) results in particular directional fluid flows through the network 103 which may vary for each pattern .
    [0042] Referring to network 103 in figure 6 showing the fluid flow pattern E, for example, active fluid actuators 202 generate liquid fluid flow in directions from vertices 2 and 3 to vertex 5, as indicated by the liquid flow direction arrows. At the vertex 5 the fluid flow divides and follows different directions through the network channels extending from the vertex 5 to the vertices 1 and 4. After that, the fluid flows back to the vertices 2 and 3 from the vertices 1 and 4 , as indicated by the liquid flow direction arrows. Note that there is no net fluid flow in network channels between vertices 1 and 4, and vertices 2 and 3. Thus, the selective activation of two fluid pump actuators 202 near vertices 2 and 3 simultaneously as shown in the pattern of fluid flow E results in particular directional flow of fluid through the network. For each of the other fluid flow patterns shown in figure 6, different directional fluid flows are generated as indicated by the flow direction arrows in each pattern. Therefore, a programmable controller 106 in a microfluidic system 100 can readily adjust fluid flow patterns within a particular network 103 of a microfluidic device 102 by the selective activation of two fluid pump actuators 202 simultaneously within the network.
    [0043] Figure 7 shows an example of a two-dimensional closed fluidic network 103 illustrating fluid flow patterns (K, L, M, N) generated by different pump activation regimes by the selective activation of three fluid pump actuators 202 simultaneously within network 103, according to a disclosure configuration. The two-dimensional network 103 is the same as shown in figure 5, and has four fluid pump actuators 202 with eight network channels (or edges) separated by five vertices or intersections of channels (referred to as 1, 2, 3, 4, 5). The selective activation of three fluid pump actuators 202 simultaneously as shown in the fluid flow patterns (K, L, M, N) results in particular directional fluid flows through the network 103 which vary for each pattern.
    [0044] Referring to the network 103 of figure 7 showing the fluid flow pattern K, for example, the active fluid flow actuators 202 generate liquid fluid flow in the directions of the vertices 1, 2, and 3, through the vertex 5, and proceeds to vertex 4, as indicated by the liquid flow direction arrows. At vertex 4, the fluid flow divides and follows different directions through the network channels extending from vertex 4 to vertices 1 and 3. Fluid reaching vertices 1 and 3 divides again and flows in different directions to vertices 5 and 2, as indicated by the liquid flow direction arrows. Thus, the selective activation of three of the four fluid flow actuators 202 near vertices 1, 2 and 3 simultaneously, as shown in the fluid flow pattern K results in a particular directional fluid flow through network 103. For each of the other fluid flow patterns shown in figure 7, different directional fluid flows are generated as indicated by the fluid flow direction arrows in each pattern. The various fluid flow patterns can be implemented in the network of a microfluidic device 102 by the selective activation of fluid actuators 202 by a programmable controller 106.
    [0045] As noted above, networks 103 within a microfluidic device 102 may have one-dimensional, two-dimensional or three-dimensional topologies. Figure 8 shows a top-to-bottom view and corresponding cross-sectional view of an example of a three-dimensional open fluidic network 103 according to a configuration of the invention. The open fluidic network 103 is connected to a fluidic reservoir 400 and facilitates fluid flow in three dimensions with a fluid channel crossing over another fluid channel. Such nets can be manufactured, for example, using conventional microfabrication techniques and a multilayer SU8 technology such as wet film spin coating and / or dry film lamination. SU8 is a transparent image-forming polymeric material, commonly used in photoresist mask for the manufacture of semiconductor devices. As shown in figure 8, for example, fluid reservoir 400 and network channels 1, 2 and 3, can be manufactured in a first layer SU8. A second SU8 802 layer can then be used to route fluid channels over other channels to avoid unwanted channel intersections within the network. Such three-dimensional topologies allow for complex and versatile microfluidic networks having inertial pumps integrated within microfluidic devices.
    [0046] The usefulness of microfluidic devices 102 is significantly enhanced by the integration of various active and passive elements used for analysis, detection, heating, and so on. Examples of such integrated elements include resistive heaters, Peltier coolers, physical, chemical and biological sensors, light sources, and combinations thereof. Figure 9 shows examples of various fluid networks 103 incorporating both fluid pump actuators 202 and active elements 900. Each of the fluid networks discussed here is suitable for incorporating such integrated elements 900 in addition to fluid pump actuators that provide a variety of fluid flow patterns within the networks.
    [0047] Although specific fluid networks have been illustrated and discussed, microfluidic devices 102 and systems contemplated here can implement many other fluid networks having a wide variety of layouts in one, two and three dimensions, which include a multitude of configurations of actuators. integrated fluid pump and other active and passive elements.
    [0048] As noted earlier, the pumping effect of a fluidic pump actuator 202 depends on an asymmetrical placement of the actuator within a fluidic channel (eg, within a pump channel 206) whose width is narrower than the width of the reservoir or other channel (such as a network channel 204) from which fluid is being pumped. (Again, a pump channel can itself be a network channel that pumps fluid, for example, between larger fluid reservoirs). Asymmetric placement of fluid actuator 202 on one side of the center point of a fluid channel establishes a short side of the channel and a long side of the channel, and a unidirectional fluid flow can be achieved in the direction from the short side (i.e. , where the fluid actuator is located) to the long side of the channel. A fluid pump actuator placed symmetrically within a fluidic channel (that is, in the center of the channel) will generate zero liquid flow. Thus, the asymmetric placement of the fluid actuator 202 within the fluidic channel is a condition that needs to be met to achieve a pumping effect that can generate a liquid flow of fluid through the channel.
    [0049] However, in addition to the asymmetric placement of the fluid actuator 202 within the fluid channel, another component of the pumping effect of the fluid actuator is its way of operation. Specifically, to achieve the pumping effect and a liquid flow of fluid through the channel, the fluid actuator must also operate asymmetrically with respect to its fluid displacement within the channel. During operation, a fluid actuator in a fluid channel deflects, first in one direction and then in the other (such as a flexible membrane or a piston stroke), to cause fluid displacements within the channel. As noted above, a fluid actuator 202 generates a wave propagating in the fluid channel that pushes fluid in opposite directions along the channel. If the operation of the fluid actuator is such that its deflections displace fluid in both directions at the same speed, then the fluid actuator will generate zero fluid flow in the channel. To generate liquid fluid flow, the operation of the fluid actuator must be configured such that its deflections, or fluid displacements, are not symmetrical. Therefore, the asymmetric operation of the fluid actuator with respect to the timing of its deflection strokes, or fluid displacements, is a second condition that needs to be met to achieve a pumping effect that can generate a liquid flow of fluid through the channel.
    [0050] Figure 10 shows a side view of an exemplary fluid network channel 1000 with an integrated fluid pump actuator 1002 at different stages of operation, according to a disclosure configuration. Fluid reservoirs 1004 are connected at each end of channel 1000. The integrated fluid actuator 1002 is placed asymmetrically on the short side of the channel near an entrance to a fluid reservoir 1004, satisfying the first condition necessary to create a pumping effect that can generate a liquid flow of fluid through the channel. The second condition that needs to be met to create a pump effect is an asymmetric operation of the fluid actuator 1002, as noted above. Fluid actuator 1002 is generally described here as a piezoelectric membrane whose deflections up and down (sometimes referred to as piston strokes) within the fluid channel generate fluid shifts that can be specifically controlled. However, a variety of other devices can be used to implement the fluid actuator including, for example, a resistive heater to generate a vapor bubble, an electrostatic membrane (MEMS), a mechanically / impact driven membrane, a moving coil, a magneto-restrictive drive, and so on.
    [0051] In operating stage A shown in figure 10, fluid actuator 1002 is in a resting position and is passive, so there is no liquid flow of fluid through channel 1000. In operating stage B, fluid actuator 1002 is active and the membrane is deflected upward within fluid channel 1000. This upward deflection, or forward stroke, causes a compressive displacement of fluid within channel 1000 as the membrane pushes fluid out. In operational stage C, fluid actuator 1002 is active and the membrane is starting to deflect downwards to return to its original resting position. This downward deflection, or inverted course, of the membrane causes a traction displacement in the fluid within channel 1000 as it pulls the fluid downward. An up and down deflection is a deflection cycle. A liquid flow of fluid is generated through channel 1000 if there is a temporal asymmetry between the upward deflection (i.e., the compressive displacement) and the downward deflection in repeated deflection cycles. Since temporal asymmetry and liquid fluid flow direction are discussed below with reference to figures 11-14, figure 10 includes question marks inserted between the opposite liquid flow direction arrows for operational stages B and C. These question marks are intended to indicate that the temporal asymmetry between compressive and tensile displacements has not been specified and, therefore, the flow direction, if any, is not yet known.
    [0052] Figure 11 shows the active fluid actuator 1002 in operational stages B and C in figure 10, along with time markers “t1” and “t2” to help illustrate the temporal asymmetry between compressive and traction displacements generated by fluid actuator 1002, according to a disclosure configuration. Time t1 is the time it takes for the fluid actuator membrane to deflect upward, generating a displacement of compressive fluid. Time t2 is the time it takes for the fluid actuator membrane to deflect downward or back to its original position, generating a displacement of traction fluid. The asymmetric operation of the fluid actuator 1002 occurs if the compressive displacement duration t1 (membrane deflection upwards) is greater or less than (that is, not equal to) the tensile displacement duration t2 (membrane deflection downwards) . Such asymmetric fluid actuator operation over repeated deflection cycles generates a net flow of fluid within channel 1000. However, if the compressive and tensile displacements t1 and t2 are the same, or symmetrical, there will be little or no net flow of fluid through channel 1000, regardless of the asymmetric placement of fluid actuator 1002 within channel 1000.
    [0053] Figures 12, 13 and 14 show the active fluid actuator 1002 in operational stages B and C of figure 10, including the liquid fluid flow direction arrows that indicate in which direction the fluid flows through channel 1000, if flow, according to disclosure settings. The direction of the liquid fluid flow depends on the durations of the compressive and traction displacements (t1 and t2) of the actuator. Figures 15, 16 and 17 show exemplary displacement pulse waveforms whose durations correspond respectively to the displacement durations t1 and t2 of figures 12, 13 and 14. For various fluid pump actuators the compressive displacement and displacement times traction units, t1 and t2, can be precisely controlled by a controller 106, for example, executing instructions such as from module 112 (the fluid actuator asymmetric operation module 112) within a microfluidic system 100.
    [0054] Referring to figure 12, the compressive travel duration, t1, is less than the traction travel duration, t2, so there is a liquid flow of fluid in one direction from the short side of channel 1000 (this is the side where the actuator is located) to the long side of the channel. The difference between the compressive and traction displacement durations, t1 and t2, can be seen in figure 15 which shows a corresponding exemplary displacement pulse waveform that can be generated by the fluid actuator with a compressive displacement duration of t1 and a traction displacement duration of t2. The waveform in figure 15 indicates a displacement pulse / cycle of the order of 1 picoliter (pl) with the compressive displacement duration, t1, of approximately 0.5 microseconds (ms) and the traction displacement duration, t2, approximately 9.5 ms. The values provided for the displacement quantity and fluid displacement durations are only examples and are not intended as limitations in any respect.
    [0055] In figure 13, the compressive travel duration, t1, is greater than the traction travel duration, t2, so there is a liquid flow of fluid in the direction from the long side of the channel 1000 to the short side of the channel . The difference between the compressive and traction displacement durations, t1 and t2, can be seen in figure 16 which shows a corresponding exemplary displacement pulse waveform that can be generated by the fluid actuator with a compressive displacement duration of t1 and a traction displacement duration of t2. The waveform in figure 15 indicates a pulse / displacement cycle of the order of 1 picoliter (pl) with the compressive displacement duration, t1, of approximately 9.5 microseconds (ms) and the traction displacement duration, t2, approximately 0.5 ms.
    [0056] In figure 14, the compressive travel duration, t1, is equal to the traction travel duration, t2, so there is little or no liquid fluid flow through channel 1000. The equal durations of compressive travel and traction of t1 and t2, can be seen in figure 17, which shows a corresponding exemplary displacement pulse waveform that can be generated by the fluid actuator with a compressive displacement duration of t1 and a traction displacement duration of t2. The waveform in figure 17 indicates a compressive displacement pulse / cycle, t1, of approximately 5.0 microseconds (ms) and a traction displacement duration, t2, of approximately 5.0 ms.
    [0057] Note that in figure 14, although there is an asymmetric location of fluid actuator 1002 within channel 1000 (satisfying a condition to achieve the pump effect), there is little or no liquid flow of fluid through channel 1000 because the operation of the fluid actuator is not asymmetric (the second condition to achieve the pump effect is not met). Likewise, if the location of the fluid actuator is symmetrical (that is, located in the center of the channel), and the operation of the actuator is asymmetrical, there will be little or no liquid flow of fluid through the channel because both pump effect conditions will not be satisfied.
    [0058] From the above examples and discussion of figures 10-17, it is significant to note the interaction between the pump effect condition of asymmetric location of the fluid actuator and the pump effect condition of asymmetric operation of the fluid actuator. That is, if the asymmetric location and asymmetric operation of the fluid actuator work in the same direction, the fluid pump actuator will demonstrate a high efficiency pumping effect. However, if the asymmetric location and asymmetric operation of the fluid actuator work against each other, the asymmetric operation of the fluid actuator reverses the liquid flow vector caused by the asymmetric location of the fluid actuator, and the liquid flow is on the long side. from the channel to the short side of channel 1000.
    [0059] In addition, from the examples above and discussion of figures 10-17, it can now be better appreciated that the fluid pump actuator 202 discussed above with respect to the microfluidic networks 103 of figures 2-8 is assumed to be an actuator device whose compressive travel duration is less than its traction travel duration. An example of such an actuator is a resistive heating element that heats the fluid and causes displacement by an explosion of supercritical steam. Such an event has an explosive asymmetry whose expansion phase (that is, compression displacement) is faster than its collapse phase (that is, traction displacement). The asymmetry of this event cannot be controlled in the same way as the deflection asymmetry caused by the piezoelectric membrane actuator, for example.
    [0060] Figure 18 shows a side view of an exemplary fluid network channel 1000 with an integrated fluid pump actuator 1002 at different stages of operation, according to a disclosure configuration. This configuration is similar to the one shown and discussed with respect to figure 10 above, except that the deflections of the fluid actuator membrane are shown working differently to create compressive and tensile displacements within channel 1000. In operational stage A shown in figure 18, fluid actuator 1002 is in a resting position and is passive, so there is no liquid flow of fluid through channel 1000. In operational stage B, fluid actuator 1002 is active and the membrane is deflected down and out of the fluid channel 1000. This downward deflection of the membrane causes a traction displacement of fluid within channel 1000 as it pulls the fluid down. In operational stage C, fluid actuator 1002 is active and the membrane is starting to deflect upwards to its original resting position. This upward deflection causes a compressive displacement of fluid within the channel 1000, as the membrane pushes the fluid upward into the channel. A liquid flow of fluid is generated through channel 1000 if there is a temporal asymmetry between the compressive displacement and the traction displacement. The direction of a liquid fluid flow is dependent on the compressive and tensile displacement durations, in the same way as discussed above.
