Introduction
• Osmotic Valve:
– Part of Osmotic Actuation Device
• Fully Integrated Device
• Utilizes Osmosis to Activate the devices
• Goal:
– Achieve faster response time of the osmotic valve
by having faster osmotic flow rate
– Improve the reliability of the device fabrication

Mechanism
Put 65 µL Tap Water on
topTap Water goes in due to
osmosis
PDMS deforms and closes
the valve

Proposed Idea
• Since Osmotic Flow Rate is proportional to the
surface area, change the opening of the valve
– Faster Osmotic Flow Rate
– Faster Pressure increase in reservoir channel
– Faster Response Time
Valve Closing Pressure
• Pressure: 500 Pa

Approach
• At first, we tried to pattern it by manually
drawing with the epoxy.
– Inconsistent
– Hard to control
– Not Reliable
• To make it more reliable, we decided use
etched gold patterned glass wafer as a top cap
on the opening.

Problems
• The Response Time is not close to the simulation data.– Device fabrication is not reliable:
Sealed Channels Leakage
• After PDMS-PDMS bonding, the
cross-section is already sealed.
• Must be careful when bonding them
together
• During the testing process, the
devices are very leaky.

Other Approaches and ideas
• Other Approaches and Ideas that I have tried
and failed:
– Bonding glass top to the valve opening
• Not enough bonding area so does not work
– PDMS top cover utilizing PDMS Etching
• Etch rate is very slow: ~20 um/hr
• Cannot get high thickness

Future Works
• Find a reliable way to seal the Sugar Water in the
reservoir.
• Achieve faster Osmotic Flow Rate and then can
optimize the design of the valve to close it faster.
– Simulations to see at what pressure the channels would
close in the cross section of the valve.

Valve Simulations
• To determine, I used 30 um displacement as a
control value and changed the lengths (x, y)
and thickness (z) of the cross sections.
