Abstract: Fluidpumpende Vorrichtung enthaltend einen piezoelektrischen Aktor, welcher extern gekoppelt ist mit einer mikrofluidischen Vorrichtung. Der piezoelektrische Aktor hat eine axiale Auslenkung entlang einer längsgerichteten Achse in Reaktion auf ein Anlegen einer Biasspannung. Die axiale Auslenkung des piezoelektrischen Aktors betreibt eines von einem internen Ventil und einer internen Pumpenkammer der mikrofluidischen Vorrichtung.

Abstract: A micro-device 10 comprises a planar substrate 12 with a microchannel 18 a cover plate 30, sample inlet port 20 and a protruding electro-spray emitter 42 suitably shaped to permit the formation of a Taylor cone from a sample passing there-through, under the influence of an electric field. Fig. 1C showing the device post removal of portions of material to form the protrusion of the electro-spray emitter 42. Also disclosed is a method of manufacture of the aforementioned micro-device comprising the use of "non-mechanical" material removal means, negating the need for "photo-resist masking", such as laser ablation or photochemical etching. Further disclosed is the use of the aforementioned micro-device in electro-spray emission, involving the passing a sample through the device and forming a Taylor cone of a sample material under the influence of an electric field at the mouth 22 of the emitter 42. The micro-device 10 may be used in the preparation of samples for subsequent processing in a mass-spectrometer. The device 10 may be composed of a polymeric material, the emitter 42 may be coated in metal. A variety of emitter 42 shapes are disclosed in later figures. The microchannel may be in the order of 1žm to 200 žm in cross-section.

Abstract: A micro-component (10) comprises a substrate (12) having a planar surface (14) and a micro-channel (18); a covering plate (30) on the planar surface; an electro-spraying emitter forming a section of the substrate and/or the covering plate; and a sample inlet gate in fluid communication with a line and allowing a fluid sample to be conveyed from an external source in a defined sample path. Independent claims are also included for the following: (i) the production of the micro-component; and (ii) for the ionization of a fluid sample in a spraying chamber using the micro-component. Preferred Features: The emitter has a concave or planar end surface arranged next to the sample outlet gate.
