Deterministic lateral displacement systems with arrayed three-dimensional electrodes for tunable particle sorting

• Deterministic Lateral Displacement (DLD) is a passive technique employed for particles sorting. We recently introduced a DLD device composed of arrayed three-dimensional metal-covered pillars that can be used to locally apply an electric field. With our system we can exploit the dielectrophoretic (DEP) effect to exert forces on the bioparticles to be sorted, thus dynamically tuning the critical size of the passive sorting device.
