Droplet transport device, analysis system, and analysis method

Abstract

Provided is a technique for moving all of a droplet from a microchannel in which the droplet have been introduced to another layer. The droplet transport device of the present disclosure includes a substrate having a through-hole or a recess, a first electrode provided on the substrate along the surface of the substrate and arranged at a position adjacent to the through-hole or the recess, a plurality of second electrodes provided on the substrate along a surface of the substrate and to which a voltage for moving the droplet introduced on the substrate is applied, and a dielectric layer covering the surface of the substrate, the first electrode, and the second electrodes, and a water-repellent film provided on the inner wall surface of the through-hole or the recess, and on the dielectric layer.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
