Abstract:Microfluidics offers a versatile and promising platform for various applications in biomedical and other fields, boasting cost‐effectiveness, rapid analysis time, and a compact equipment footprint. However, achieving controlled and versatile microfluidic motion within implantable devices presents a significant challenge. In this study, we propose a novel bidirectional micro‐pump design that leverages two sharp‐edge microcantilever arrays, driven by ultrasound, to enable selective flow direction by manipulating… Show more
