Electrohydrodynamics and dielectrophoresis in microsystems: scaling laws
The movement and behaviour of particles suspended in aqueous solutions subjected to non-uniform ac electric fields is examined. The ac electric fields induce movement of polarizable particles, a phenomenon known as dielectrophoresis. The high strength electric fields that are often used in separation systems can give rise to fluid motion, which in turn results in a viscous drag on the particle....
متن کاملTitanium-based dielectrophoresis devices for microfluidic applications.
To date, materials selection in microfluidics has been restricted to conventional micromechanical materials systems such as silicon, glass, and various polymers. Metallic materials offer a number of potential advantages for microfluidic applications, including high fracture toughness, thermal stability, and solvent resistance. However, their exploitation in such applications has been limited. I...
متن کاملDielectrophoresis and electrohydrodynamics-mediated fluidic assembly of silicon resistors
In this letter, we present techniques, utilizing dielectrophoresis and electrohydrodynamics, which can be used for assembling single-crystal silicon devices suspended in a solution onto a binding site on a heterogeneous substrate. Silicon resistors with gold/chromium layers located at the end of the resistors and silicon blocks without metal were fabricated on bonded and etched-backed silicon-o...
متن کاملMicrofluidic mixing using contactless dielectrophoresis.
The first experimental evidence of mixing enhancement in a microfluidic system using contactless dielectrophoresis (cDEP) is presented in this work. Pressure-driven flow of deionized water containing 0.5 μm beads was mixed in various chamber geometries by imposing a dielectrophoresis (DEP) force on the beads. In cDEP the electrodes are not in direct contact with the fluid sample but are instead...
متن کاملMulti-Physics Analysis of Microfluidic Devices with Hydrodynamic Focusing and Dielectrophoresis
As microfluidic devices become smaller and more complex, fewer options are available for modeling the behavior these devices. Analytic solutions that provided scoping results when the devices were simple fail to provide adequate assurance when the devices become complex. And if more than one physics environment is involved, complexity will be present for the degrees of freedom as well as the ge...
