The ability to create patterns of piezo responsive material on smooth substrate is an important method to develop efficient microfluidic mixers. This paper reports the fabrication of Poly vinylidene fluoride microfilms using spin-coating on smooth glass surface. The suitable crystalline phases, surface morphology and microstructural properties of the PVDF films have been investigated. We found that films of average thickness 10[Formula: see text][Formula: see text]m, had average roughness of 0.13[Formula: see text][Formula: see text]m. These PVDF films are useful in microfluidic mixer applications.

Abstract Polyvinylidene fluoride is a piezoelectric polymer that can be cast into transparent thin films. New properties can be introduced by embedding nanoparticles in this polymer, making it an excellent platform for flexible and tunable electronic and optoelectronic devices. We develop a recipe for embedding plasmonic gold nanoparticles into these films while maintaining their transparency as an initial step to activate optical response in the film. We characterize films made under different poling conditions with and without nanoparticle inclusions using X-ray diffraction. We find that the inclusion of gold nanoparticles screens the poling field and has a sizable effect on the phase of the produced films.
