Description/Abstract

This paper presents a process for fabricating diaphragms, suitable for use in micromachined pumps within the field of micro-fluidics. To enable the actuation of a thick-film deposited magnetostrictive material, actuation coils are fabricated onto the non-chamber face of the diaphragms. These actuation coils are fabricated using a multilayer deposition approach compatible with micromachining processes. The selection of diaphragm and actuation region dimensions has been achieved through the use of finite element modeling. The paper also describes the fabrication process used to realize the structures.
