Manipulation and separation of oil droplets by using asymmetric nano-orifice induced DC dielectrophoretic method
Zhao, Kai; Li, Dongqing (Elsevier, 2018-02-15)Emulsion droplets are versatile tools in chemical and biological fields and the separation of emulsion droplets is one of the most crucial steps in research and industry. This work developed a nano-orifice based DC ... -
Nano-orifice based Dielectrophoretic Manipulation and Characterization of Nanoparticles and Biological Cells
Zhao, Kai (University of Waterloo, 2019-08-02)Dielectrophoresis (DEP) is the motion of a dielectric particle in an aqueous solution due to the polarization effects in a non-uniform electric field. Due to its property of label-free, scalable, and capable of generating ... -
Separation of nanoparticles by a nano-orifice based DC-dielectrophoresis method in a pressure-driven flow
Zhao, Kai; Peng, Ran; Li, Dongqing (Royal Society of Chemistry, 2016-10-07)A novel DC-dielectrophoresis (DEP) method employing a pressure-driven flow for the continuous separation of micro/nano-particles is presented in this paper. To generate the DEP force, a small voltage difference is applied ...
