Size based sorting and patterning of microbeads by evaporation driven flow in a 3D micro-traps array

Size based sorting and patterning of microbeads by evaporation driven flow in a 3D micro-traps array

We present a three-dimensional (3D) micro-traps array for size selective sorting and patterning of microbeads via evaporation-driven capillary flow. The interconnected micro-traps array was manufactured by silicon micromachining. Microliters of aqueous solution containing particle mixtures of differ...
