摘要: The manipulation of biological objects is a key technology necessary for many new applications in Bio-MEMS. In this paper, we will report on our preliminary experimental work using an Ionic Conducting Polymer Film (ICPF) to develop cell robotic gripper. ability ICPF actuators give large deflection with small input voltage (∼5V) allow be developed, spanning from biology underwater MEMS and artificial muscles. A laser micromachining process introduced fabricate arrays griping devices, which can potentially integrated onto PCB board micro system. Individual multi-finger grippers dimensions 200μm × 3000μm each finger were realized. We the design, fabrication procedures, operating performance these micro-grippers. Further development reduction size enable effective control lead frontiers cellular manipulation.
