Different microelectrode designs for a dielectrophoresis (DEP)-based lab-on-chip, have significant effect on the DEP force produced. Study on the microelectrode factor is essential, as the geometry and the numbers of microelectrode can influence particles and/or cells polarization. This paper presen...
