    摘要: A microfluidic device (10) for performing chemical or biological reactions comprises a chamber (20) for use as a self-sustaining oscillating jet mixing chamber and two or more separate feed channels (22, 24, 40) separated by one or more inter-channel walls (25), the two or more channels (22,24,40) terminating at a common side (18) of the chamber (20), the two or more channels (22,24,40) having a total channel width (28) comprising the widths of the two or more channels (22,24,40) and all inter-channel walls (25) taken together, the chamber (20) having a width (26) in a direction perpendicular to the channels (22,24,40) and a length (32) in a direction parallel to the channels, the width (26) being at least two times the total channel width (28), the chamber (20) having two opposing major surfaces (56) defining a height (30) thereof, the chamber (20) having a major-surface-area to volume ratio of at least 10 cm 2 /cm 3 . A method of microfluidic fluid mixing using a self-sustaining oscillating jet mixing chamber is also disclosed.
