Development of digital microfluidic device for dielectrophoretic manipulation of particles

This thesis presents the development of a parallel plate lab-on-a-chip (LOC) device for manipulating biological/surrogate particles in droplet based digital microfluidic (DMF) platforms. A fundamental principle, known as dielectrophoresis (DEP), is used to manipulate the particles in a non-uniform e...
