一种显著提高三代像增强器信噪比的微通道板

鉴于离子阻挡膜保证了三代像增强器的工作寿命，但增加了微通道板和三代像增强器的噪声因子，降低了三代像增强器的信噪比，削弱了NEA光阴极的优势，提出一种最新研制的微通道板。它优化了玻璃成份，提高了玻璃的工作温度，同时还改善了通道内壁工作面结构，且开口面积比达到65%～70%。通过三代像增强器制管试验证实，这种高性能微通道板具有低噪声因子特性，与标准MCP相比，可显著提高三代管的信噪比。最后指出通过进一步试验和改进，实现更高信噪比长寿命无膜三代像增强器的可能性。

Continuous Size Classification of Nanoparticles Utilizing Brownian Motion in Microchannel Size Exclusion Chromatography

This study presents a new method for classifying the sizes of colloidal nanoparticles of below 100 nm in diameter in liquid dispersion using a microchannel size exclusion chromatography (SEC) chip. This chip can classify polydisperse colloidal nanoparticles containing a mix of two monodisperse nanoparticles into several monodisperse particle populations. The particles classified by the SEC chip are then sequentially analyzed by a photon correlation spectroscopy (PCS) method in combination with a flow cell. Two different pillar patterns of such SEC chips were used in experiments to investigate the effects of these patterns on the nanoparticle classification performance. The results obtained were compared with those from a numerical simulation. Standard polystyrene latex particles with diameters of 20 nm and 100 nm were used in this study. The usefulness of this methodology was verified since the simulation and measurement results were in good agreement with each other.

Concentration‐controlled particle focusing in spiral elasto‐inertial microfluidic devices

Herein, we proposed a strategy for controlling the particle focusing position in Dean‐coupled elasto‐inertial flows via adjusting the polymer concentration of viscoelastic fluids. The physics behind the control strategy was then explored and discussed. At high polymer concentrations, the flowing particles could be single‐line focused exactly at the channel centerline under the dominated elastic force. The center‐line focusing in our spiral channel may employed as a potential pretreatment scheme for microflow cytometry detection. With further decreasing polymer concentrations, the particles would shift into the outer channel region under the comparable competition between inertial lift force, elastic force and Dean drag force. Finally, the observed position‐shifting was successfully employed for particle concentration at a throughput much higher than most existing elasto‐inertial microfluidics.

Three-dimensional lattice Boltzmann simulations of droplet formation in a cross-junction microchannel

An immiscible liquid–liquid multiphase flow in a cross-junction microchannel was numerically studied by the lattice Boltzmann method. An improved, immiscible lattice BGK model was proposed by introducing interfacial tension force based on the continuum surface force (CSF) method. The recoloring step was replaced by the anti-diffusion scheme in the mixed region to reduce the side-effect and control the thickness of the interface. The present method was tested by the simulations on a static bubble and the simulations of Taylor deformation. Laplace’s law, spurious velocities, the thickness of interface, the pressure distribution and the small deformation theory were examined. It proves that our model is more advantageous for the simulation of immiscible fluids over the original immiscible lattice BGK model. The simulations of droplet formation in a cross-junction microchannel were performed and compared with the experiments. The numerical results show good agreements with the experimental ones for the evolution of droplet and the droplet size at various inlet velocities. Besides, a dimensionless analysis was carried out. The resulting droplet sizes depend on the Capillary number to a great extent under current conditions.     

Numerical simulation of dispersion generated by a 180° turn in a microchannel

A numerical scheme is developed to simulate electro-osmotic flow and mass transport in a microchannel which includes a 180° turn. The model has been used to predict the behaviour of electro-osmotically driven flows. The detailed structure of the flow field in a microchannel in combination with species mass diffusion can explain the concentration dispersion introduced by a 180° turn. The results of our simulations agree both qualitatively and quantitatively with experimental observation. It is demonstrated that an improved electro-osmotic force model could simulate the electrokinetically driven flow well without making detailed calculations of the electric charge density distribution within the electrical double layer. Additionally, because this model applies forces to the liquid as opposed to imposing local velocities, it should also be appropriate for use where pressure gradients exist in the flow field.
