摘要:
A switching element has an ion conductor capable of conducting metal ions for use in an electrochemical reaction therein, a first electrode and a second electrode which are disposed in contact with said ion conductor and spaced a predetermined distance from each other, and a third electrode disposed in contact with the ion conductor. When a voltage for causing the switching element to transit to an on state is applied to the third electrode, metal is precipitated between the first electrode and the second electrode by metal ions, electrically interconnecting the first electrode and the second electrode, When a voltage for causing the switching element to transit to an off state is applied to the third electrode, the precipitated metal is dissolved to electrically disconnect the first electrode and the second electrode from each other.

The present invention relates to a transistor for selecting a storage cell and a switch using a solid electrolyte. In a storage cell, a metal is stacked on a drain diffusion layer of a field-effect transistor formed on a semiconductor substrate surface. The solid electrolyte using the metal as a carrier is stacked on the metal. The solid electrolyte contacts with the metal via a gap, and the metal is connected to a common grounding conductor. A source of the field-effect transistor is connected to a column address line, and a gate of the field-effect transistor is connected to a row address line.

A liquid sample (104) introduced in a main flow passage (101) is held in a dam portion (105), and a trigger liquid (106) is filled in a trigger flow passage (102). In this state, the trigger liquid (106) is further introduced at desired timing into the trigger flow passage (102) so that the front end portion of the level of the trigger liquid (106) is advanced and the front end portion is brought to be into contact with the dam portion (105). This causes the liquid sample (104) to move to the right (downstream side) in the figure, resulting in the liquid sample (104) flowing out to the downstream side of the main flow passage (101). This means that the trigger liquid (106) provides priming to realize a liquid switch.

The present invention provides a technique for automating the operation to peel off and remove a lid seal part adhered and fixed to the top face of a substrate part constituting a lid-sealed “microchip” after subjecting a sample solution to be analyzed to electrophoretic separation. After subjecting sample solution to be analyzed to desired electrophoretic separation the by utilizing a channel formed in the lid-sealed microchip, the electrophoretically separated liquid sample held in the channel undergoes freezing of the aqueous solvent contained and then, while the whole electrophoretically separated liquid sample remains sustained in the frozen state, an end of the lid seal part used for sealing the top face of channel formed in the substrate part is lifted up at a predetermined speed so as to peel and remove it from the substrate part under a condition of maintaining a bend of a predetermined radius of curvature.
