Figure Lengend Snippet: Illustration of Microfluidic Flip-Chip ( A ) Image shows the fabricated MFC using a soft lithography process along with the illustration. ( B ) A graphic illustration of the MFC shows the three-layered structure with PDMS channels as the top layer, through-hole membrane as the middle layer, and titanium electrodes as the third bottom layer. ( C ) The parameters affecting chip performance—the PDMS membrane thickness (t m ), the diameter of fusion well (d w ), the distance between adjacent wells (d aw ), the distance between electrodes (d), and the distance between adjacent electrodes (d ae ) are as shown. Scale bar: 200 µm.
