Nano-Particle Image Velocimetry: A Near-Wall Velocimetry Technique with Submicron Spatial Resolution [1]

  • Chapter
BioMEMS and Biomedical Nanotechnology

Abstract

Over the last decade, characterizing and understanding fluid flow and transport at spatial scales of 100 μm or less has become a major area of research in fluid mechanics because of the rapid development of microscale devices based upon microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) fabrication techniques. Examples of such microfluidic devices include Labs-on-a-Chip for biochemical separation and analysis, inkjet printer heads, various types of microelectronic cooling devices, microscale fuel cells, microthrusters, and genomic and proteomic “chips” capable of sequencing and identifying various proteins including RNA and DNA. More recently, nanotechnology and the promise of engineering new devices at the molecular scale has sparked interest in understanding flow at spatial scales below 1μm. Optimizing and controlling the flow of liquids and gases in micro- and nanoscale devices requires both well-validated models of transport down to the molecular scale and diagnostic techniques with spatial resolution well below 1μm.
