Abstract

In this paper, we present design, fabrication and coupled multifield analysis of hollow out-of-plane silicon microneedles with piezoelectrically actuated microfluidic device for transdermal drug delivery (TDD) system for treatment of cardiovascular or hemodynamic disorders such as hypertension. The mask layout design and fabrication process of silicon microneedles and reservoir involving deep reactive ion etching (DRIE) is first presented. This is followed by actual fabrication of silicon hollow microneedles by a series of combined isotropic and anisotropic etching processes using inductively coupled plasma (ICP) etching technology. Then coupled multifield analysis of a MEMS based piezoelectrically actuated device with integrated silicon microneedles is presented. The coupledfield analysis of hollow silicon microneedle array integrated with piezoelectric micropump has involved structural and fluid field couplings in a sequential structural-fluid analysis on a three-dimensional model of the microfluidic device. The effect of voltage and frequency on silicon membrane deflection and flow rate through the microneedle is investigated in the coupled field analysis using multiple code coupling method. The results of the present study provide valuable benchmark and prediction data to fabricate optimized designs of the silicon hollow microneedle based microfluidic devices for transdermal drug delivery applications.

摘要

在本文中,我们展示了用于治疗心血管或血液动力学紊乱(如高血压)的经皮给药(TDD)系统的空心平面外硅微针与压电驱动微流体装置的设计、制造及多场耦合分析。首先介绍了涉及深反应离子刻蚀(DRIE)的硅微针和储液器的掩膜版图设计与制造工艺。接着通过一系列使用电感耦合等离子体(ICP)刻蚀技术的各向同性和各向异性组合刻蚀工艺,实际制造出硅空心微针。然后展示了基于MEMS的集成硅微针的压电驱动装置的多场耦合分析。集成了压电微泵的空心硅微针阵列的多场耦合分析,在微流体装置的三维模型上进行了顺序结构 - 流体分析,涉及结构和流场耦合。在多代码耦合方法的多场耦合分析中,研究了电压和频率对硅膜挠度以及通过微针的流速的影响。本研究结果为制造用于经皮给药应用的基于硅空心微针的微流体装置的优化设计提供了有价值的基准和预测数据。
