Far-Infrared Imaging Method for Non-Contact Monitoring of Micromixer
Keyword(s):
For many Lap-on-a-Chip applications, rapid and homogenous mixing of two or more fluid species is inevitable. However, it is also of great importance to developing a quick and convenient method for monitoring the mixture processing, as well as the entire working process of the Lab-on-a-chip. In order to develop a quick and convenient method, this paper is dedicated to establish a non-contact image way for monitoring not only the liquid flow behavior, but also the mixability between each reactant. The far-infrared thermal imaging system was adopted to detect and map the surface temperature distribution of the micromixer, which consequently could help achieve the non-contact monitoring of the mixing process.
