Separation of Nano- and Microparticle Flows Using Thermophoresis in Branched Microfluidic Channels

Separation of Nano- and Microparticle Flows Using Thermophoresis in Branched Microfluidic Channels

Particle flow separation is a useful technique in lab-on-a-chip applications to selectively transport dispersed phases to a desired branch in microfluidic devices. The present study aims to demonstrate both nano- and microparticle flow separation using microscale thermophoresis at a Y-shaped branch...
