201122403 六、發明說明: 【發明所屬之技術領域】 [0001] 本發明涉及一種冷卻裝置,尤係關於一種用於冷卻電子 元件的微型液體冷卻裝置。 【先前技術】 [0002] 目前,對發熱電子元件進行冷卻的液體冷卻裝置一般包 括一吸熱體、一散熱體、一泵及複數傳輸管。由該吸熱 體、散熱體、泵及傳輸管構成一迴路,該迴路中填充有 冷卻液體,冷卻液體在該吸熱體處吸收電子元件所產生 的熱量,經傳輸管傳至散熱體後放出熱量。在該泵的驅 動作用下,該冷卻液體在迴路中不斷循環,從而源源不 斷地帶走該電子元件所產生的熱量。 [0003] 然而,習知液體冷卻裝置中泵所佔用的空間較大,很難 符合電子裝置朝向輕薄化方向發展的要求。另外,泵在 運行時還會產生較大的嗓音,影響使用者的聽覺感受。 [0004] 介質材料上的電潤濕效應(E1 ec trowet t i ng On Dielectric,EWOD)係一種藉由施加電勢來改變液體表 面張力的可逆現象。圖1A與圖1B為介質上的電潤濕效應 的原理圖。如圖1A所示,下極板10包括一基底11,基底 11上設有下電極層12,該下電極層12被一層絕緣層13覆 蓋,液滴14位於絕緣層13的表面,上電極15插入液滴14 的内部。該上電極1 5與下電極層1 2之間藉由電源線連接 有一開關16及一可調電源17,該開關16用於控制電路的 斷開與閉合,該可調電源17用來給下極板10與上電極15 之間提供施加電壓。當上電極15與下極板10之間不加電 098145684 表單編號A0101 第4頁/共18頁 0982077972-0 201122403 Ο [0005] 壓’即開關16處於斷開狀態時,該下極板ι〇的絕緣層13 的表面為疏水的’此時液滴14的靜態接觸角為0(〇)>9〇 。。如圖1Β所示,當開關16閉合時,可調電源17提供一電 壓V ’在液滴14與下極板10之間產生電勢作用,此時,液 滴14的靜態接觸角由原來的0(〇)變化為,0(ν)< θ (0)。當V的大小達到一定值時,0 (ν)<9〇。,此時絕 緣層13的表面變成親水的。當開關16重新斷開時,即液 滴14與下極板1〇之間沒有電勢作用時,液滴14的靜態接 觸角重新回復到0(0)。上述的這種現象稱為介質材料上 的電潤濕效應。 Ο 利用這種介質材料上的電潤濕效應原理,美國杜克大學 (Duck University)的Pol lack M G等人首先基於介 質材料上的電潤濕效應並採用微機械製作的微電極陣列 進行了微液滴的運動控制’並提出了 “數位微流體(Di_ gital Microfluidics)”的概念。美國洛杉磯加州大 學(UCLA)的Cho S K等人成功地剁用EW0D效應對直徑 為70//m的微液滴進行了微液滴私產生、傳輸、混合和分 裂四個基本操作,並在25V的交流電壓下得到了 250mm/s 的微液滴移動速度(Cho S K,Moon H,Kim C J.

Description of the Invention: [Technical Field of the Invention] [0001] The present invention relates to a cooling device, and more particularly to a micro liquid cooling device for cooling an electronic component. [Prior Art] [0002] At present, a liquid cooling device for cooling a heat-generating electronic component generally includes a heat absorbing body, a heat sink, a pump, and a plurality of transfer tubes. The heat absorbing body, the heat sink, the pump and the transfer tube form a circuit, and the circuit is filled with a cooling liquid, and the cooling liquid absorbs heat generated by the electronic component at the heat absorbing body, and is transferred to the heat sink through the transfer pipe to release heat. Under the driving action of the pump, the cooling liquid circulates continuously in the circuit, so that the source continuously removes the heat generated by the electronic component. [0003] However, in the conventional liquid cooling device, the space occupied by the pump is large, and it is difficult to meet the requirements for the development of the electronic device toward the thinning direction. In addition, the pump will also produce a loud voice during operation, affecting the user's hearing experience. [0004] The electrowetting effect on a dielectric material (E1 ec trowet t ng On Dielectric, EWOD) is a reversible phenomenon of changing the surface tension of a liquid by applying an electric potential. Figures 1A and 1B are schematic diagrams of the electrowetting effect on a medium. As shown in FIG. 1A, the lower plate 10 includes a substrate 11 on which a lower electrode layer 12 is disposed. The lower electrode layer 12 is covered by an insulating layer 13, and the droplets 14 are located on the surface of the insulating layer 13, and the upper electrode 15 is provided. Insert the inside of the droplet 14. A switch 16 and an adjustable power source 17 are connected between the upper electrode 15 and the lower electrode layer 12 by a power line. The switch 16 is used for controlling the opening and closing of the circuit, and the adjustable power source 17 is used to give An applied voltage is applied between the plate 10 and the upper electrode 15. When no power is applied between the upper electrode 15 and the lower plate 10, 098145684 Form No. A0101 Page 4 of 18 0982077972-0 201122403 Ο [0005] When the switch 16 is in the off state, the lower plate is 〇 The surface of the insulating layer 13 is hydrophobic. At this time, the static contact angle of the droplet 14 is 0 (〇) > 9 〇. . As shown in FIG. 1A, when the switch 16 is closed, the adjustable power supply 17 provides a voltage V' to generate an electric potential between the liquid droplet 14 and the lower plate 10. At this time, the static contact angle of the liquid droplet 14 is from the original zero. (〇) changes to, 0 (ν) < θ (0). When the size of V reaches a certain value, 0 (ν) < 9 〇. At this time, the surface of the insulating layer 13 becomes hydrophilic. When the switch 16 is re-opened, i.e., there is no potential between the liquid droplet 14 and the lower plate 1 , the static contact angle of the droplet 14 returns to 0 (0). This phenomenon is referred to as the electrowetting effect on the dielectric material. Ο Using the principle of electrowetting effect on this dielectric material, Pump lack MG et al. of Duck University in the United States first based on the electrowetting effect on the dielectric material and micro-electrode arrays made by micro-machinery. The motion control of droplets 'and proposed the concept of "Di_ gital Microfluidics". Cho SK et al. of the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) successfully used the EW0D effect to perform four basic operations of microdroplet private generation, transmission, mixing and splitting on 70//m diameter droplets, and at 25V. The droplet movement speed of 250mm/s is obtained under AC voltage (Cho SK, Moon H, Kim C J. Creating, Transporting, Cutting, and Merging Liquid Droplets by Electrowetting-Based Ac-tuEtion for Distal Microfluidic Circuits [J] Journal of Microelectromechanical Sys-tems, 2003, 12 (1): 70-80.). It can be seen that the electrowetting effect based on the dielectric material is a very effective microfluidic control technique. 098145684 Form No. A0101 Page 5 of 18 0982077972-0 201122403 [Summary of the Invention] [0006] [0007] [0008] The problem is small and has a good static.
