Droplet Manipulation Using L-DEPOE (Liquid Dilectrophoresis on Electret)
In order to make droplet-based digital microfluidics really ‘digital’ and compatible with standard integrated chips (ICs), a novel low-voltage droplet manipulation method named ‘liquid dielectrophoresis on electret (L-DEPOE)’ is proposed for dielectric liquids, which initializes the possibility of digital microfluidics for IC control and broad consumer electronic applications.
