Analytical solutions of the dielectrophoretic and travelling wave force generated by interdigitated electrode arrays
Analytical solutions of the dielectrophoretic and travelling wave force generated by interdigitated electrode arrays
In AC electrokinetics, the application of an AC electric field to a suspension of particles results in the manipulation and separation of the particles also the movement of the fluid. One application is dielectrophoresis (DEP). The second effect is travelling wave dielectrophoresis (twDEP). This paper presents the analytical solutions of the dielectrophoretic and travelling wave forces for the interdigitated electrode arrays energised with either a two- or four-phase signal, respectively. The torque that rotates the particle in the four-phase travelling wave arrays is also analytically solved.

Abstract
In AC electrokinetics, the application of an AC electric field to a suspension of particles results in the manipulation and separation of the particles also the movement of the fluid. One application is dielectrophoresis (DEP). The second effect is travelling wave dielectrophoresis (twDEP). This paper presents the analytical solutions of the dielectrophoretic and travelling wave forces for the interdigitated electrode arrays energised with either a two- or four-phase signal, respectively. The torque that rotates the particle in the four-phase travelling wave arrays is also analytically solved.
