Abstract
We developed a pressure-driven flow control system for chemical reaction in nanochannel. In this system, back pressure regulating was utilized to prevent the high pressure loss, which is usually occured in nanochannel. We evaluated the back pressure regulating system by investigating the flow rate in nanochannel. By utilizing the flow control system, chemical reaction in nanochannel was demonstrated. Two different solution for chemical reaction were simultaneously introduced into Y-shaped nanochannel and chemical reaction in nanochannel was performed.
