A note on dielectrophoresis

Liquid dielectrophoresis on the microscale

Polarizable liquids respond to a non-uniform electric "eld by collecting preferentially in regions of maximum "eld intensity. This manifestation of dielectrophoresis (DEP) is a wellknown example of the ponderomotive force, with the "eld acting on individual (molecular) dipoles in the liquid. When electrode dimensions are scaled down to &10 to 100 m, liquid DEP makes possible a new type of high-...

A note on vague graphs

In this paper, we introduce the notions of product vague graph, balanced product vague graph, irregularity and total irregularity of any irregular vague graphs and some results are presented. Also, density and balanced irregular vague graphs are discussed and some of their properties are established. Finally we give an application of vague digraphs.

A note on lifting projections

Suppose $pi:mathcal{A}rightarrow mathcal{B}$ is a surjective unital $ast$-homomorphism between C*-algebras $mathcal{A}$ and $mathcal{B}$, and $0leq aleq1$ with $ain  mathcal{A}$. We give a sufficient condition that ensures there is a proection $pin mathcal{A}$ such that $pi left( pright) =pi left( aright) $. An easy consequence is a result of [L. G. Brown and G. k. Pedersen, C*-algebras of real...

A dielectrophoresis-based microchannel system

In this paper, we will propose a dielectrophoresis-based microchannel system. Based on numerical calculations and theoretical analysis, we investigate the dynamic behaviors of a microparticle in this system, in the presence of nonuniform electric fields generated by point microelectrodes. Good agreement is shown between them. It is found that the microelectrodes enable the system equilibrium to...
