Abstract
Description
‐ 開口部に少なくとも部分的に対向して配置された移送用電極と称される少なくとも一つの電極と、
‐ 少なくとも二つの小滴形成用電極と、
‐ 移送用電極と小滴分配用電極との間に配置されるか、移送用電極及び小滴形成用電極に対応していて、小滴形成用電極のそれぞれの面積の少なくとも三倍に等しい面積を有する、リザーバ電極と称される少なくとも一つの電極(48)とを含む。
‐ その少なくとも一部が開口部に少なくとも部分的に対向して配置されている移送用電極と称される電極とリザーバ電極との交互の組と、
‐ それぞれのリザーバ電極に対応した一続きの小滴形成用電極とを含み、
リザーバ電極の少なくとも一つは、対応する小滴形成用電極のそれぞれの面積の少なくとも三倍に等しい面積を有する。
‐ その少なくとも一部が開口部に少なくとも部分的に対向して配置されている移送用電極と称される多数の電極と、そのそれぞれが一つの移送用電極に対応している多数のリザーバ電極と、
‐ それぞれのリザーバ電極に対応した一続きの小滴形成用電極とを含み、
リザーバ電極の少なくとも一つは、対応する小滴形成用電極のそれぞれの面積の少なくとも三倍に等しい面積を有する。
‐ 液体供給用開口部から直列的に配置され、移送用電極と交互になるか、または、
‐ この開口部の周りに並列的に配置され、そのそれぞれは一つの移送用電極によって供給が行われる。
‐ ウェルに少なくとも部分的に対向して配置された移送用電極と称される電極の補助を用いて、所謂リザーバ電極にウェルから液体を完全にまたは部分的に移送する段階を含む。液体リザーバ内の圧力は、ウェル内の液体の圧力に依存しない。
1‐全ての電極は停止状態である(状態0)、
2‐移送用電極44を状態1に設定し、ウェル内の液体をリザーバ電極48の近傍に移動させる、
3‐リザーバ電極48を状態1に設定し、液体がリザーバ電極48の上方の空間を満たす、
4‐移送用電極44を状態0にリセットする。そうして、リザーバ電極に多量の小滴51が形成されるが(図4B)、この小滴は最早ウェルに物理的に接触していない。
5‐形成される新たな小滴のそれぞれに対して、例えば、
5.1‐リザーバ電極48を非活性化させる、
5.2‐分配用電極50〜56の(少なくとも)二つを活性化させる、
5.3‐分配用電極50〜56の少なくとも一つを非活性化させ(電極が二つしかない場合には、電極50を非活性化する)、電極48及び電極52活性化させて、極僅かな量の液体を抽出する。一般的に、リザーバ51から最も離れている分配用電極以外の分配用電極を非活性化させる。
5.4‐リザーバ電極48を活性化させ、分割動作を容易にする。これによって、新たな小滴の形成及び放出が生じる。
