This article presents a polymeric high-throughput, pressure-driven nanofluidic mixer utilizing a nanoporous charge-selective Nafion membrane. The device has no movable parts and is fabricated in PMMA by means of laser machining and thermal bonding. Mixing is achieved by strong vortices occurring abo...
