Dielectrophoresis (DEP) is the movement of a particle in a non‐uniform electric field due to
the interaction of the particle's dipole and spatial gradient of the electric field. DEP is a subtle …

Focusing particles (both biological and synthetic) into a tight stream is usually a necessary
step prior to counting, detecting, and sorting them. The various particle focusing approaches …

The development of lab-on-a-chip (LOC) devices over the past decade has attracted
growing interest. LOC devices aim to achieve the miniaturization, integration, automation …

Microfluidic devices have been extensively used to achieve precise transport and placement
of a variety of particles for numerous applications. A range of force fields have thus far been …

A commercially available CO 2 laser scriber is used to perform the direct-writing ablation of
polymethyl-methacrylate (PMMA) substrates for microfluidic applications. The microfluidic …

Microfabricated flow cytometers can detect, count, and analyze cells or particles using
microfluidics and electronics to give impedance‐based characterization. Such systems are …

Abstract Insulator‐based dielectrophoresis (iDEP), also known as electrodeless DEP, has
become a well‐known dielectrophoretic technique, no longer viewed as a new …

DEP is an established technique for particle manipulation. Although first demonstrated in the
1950s, it was not until the development of miniaturization techniques in the 1990s that DEP …

The classic theory of direct-current (DC) insulator-based dielectrophoresis (iDEP) considers
that, in order to elicit particle trap**, dielectrophoretic (DEP) velocity counterbalances …

Viscoelasticity-induced particle migration has recently received increasing attention due to
its ability to obtain high-quality focusing over a wide range of flow rates. However, its …
