Abstract

In a micropump having a working chamber (1), an intake valve (2), and a discharge valve (3), the valves (2,3) are etched out of silicon wafers (4,5). The gas in the working chamber (1) is heated by a heating element (6), so that an overpressure is produced in the working chamber. A partial vacuum is created by cooling the gas in the working chamber (1). The pump action of the micropump is achieved through the succession of overpressure and partial-vacuum cycles.
