Abstract

This paper presents the numerical simulation results of various electrokinetic force fields in a novel branched-U-turn two-dimensional (2D)-like nanofluidic device. The force fields are controlled by two electrodes fabricated around the semicircular-chamber part of the device. The results show that manipulation and sorting of particles-in-solution in the device is feasible.
