PARTICLE ARRANGING DEVICE AND METHOD

摘要

A particle arranging device includes a chamber including a first input/output portion and a second input/output portion and providing a space through which a fluid containing particles flows, at least one capturing structure provided in the chamber to form a fluidic channel through which the fluid flows and having a gate portion adapted to allow the particle in the fluid to enter the capturing structure through the gate portion and a receiving portion adapted to receive the particle entering through the gate portion, a deformable membrane structure provided in the gate portion of the capturing structure and configured to actuate to control the number of the particles to enter the capturing structure through the gate portion, and a membrane control portion configured to apply a pressure to the deformable membrane structure.

1. A particle arranging device comprising:
a chamber including a first input/output portion and a second input/output portion, the chamber configured to provide a space through which a fluid containing particles flows; at least one capturing structure disposed within the chamber configured to form a fluidic channel through which the fluid flows, the at least one capturing structure including a gate portion configured to allow the particle in the fluid to enter the capturing structure through the gate portion and a receiving portion configured to receive the particle through the gate portion; a deformable membrane structure disposed proximate the gate portion of the capturing structure and configured to actuate to control the number of the particles entering the capturing structure through the gate portion; and a membrane control portion configured to apply a force to the deformable membrane structure.
