    摘要: Disclosed are electroactive polymer actuators and their use on microfluidic devices. Such actuators can comprise an electrode, an electroactive polymer, and a fluid-conducting channel. The electroactive polymer can be at least partially disposed between the electrode and the fluid-conducting channel. Furthermore, methods for creating a hydrodynamic force in a microfluidic device are disclosed by creating a potential difference across an electroactive polymer disposed on the microfluidic device.
