Optically induced electrokinetic concentration and sorting of colloids

We demonstrate an optically induced ac electrokinetic technique that rapidly and continuously accumulates colloids on a parallel-plate electrode surface resulting in a crystalline-like aggregation. Electrothermal hydrodynamics produce a microfluidic vortex that carries suspended particles toward its...
