  • Microfluidic chip and manufacturing method thereof and integrated microfluidic chip system
    Patent number: 10724981
    Abstract: A microfluidic chip suitable for detecting a microdroplet includes a first component, a second component, a channel layer, and a semiconductor chip. The first component includes a first substrate, a first electrode layer, and a first dielectric layer, wherein the first electrode layer is located between the first substrate and the first dielectric layer. The second component is disposed opposite to the first component and includes a second substrate, a second electrode layer, and a second dielectric layer. The channel layer is located between the first component and the second component. The semiconductor chip is disposed at one side of the first substrate and is exposed to the channel layer to assist in treating or detecting a sample or microdroplet. The microdroplet in the sample entering the channel layer is reacted with the semiconductor chip, and thus the sample is detected.
