Applying an external electric field over a polarizable electrode or object within
microchannels can induce an electric double layer (EDL) around channel walls and create …

An optimization methodology is developed and applied to an ac electrothermal pump design
with patterned microgrooved features. The microgrooved configuration can overcome the …

Although electric fields have been widely used to induce flow of electrolytes, electrically
induced long-range flow of metallic liquids has never been reported. Here we show that …

AC electroosmotic micropumps are suggested to be powerful tools for electrolyte dosing in
various micro-and nanofluidic systems. In this paper, we compare two modeling approaches …

In this paper configurable AC electroosmotic array devices are investigated for the purpose
of combined pumping and mixing in microcapillaries. The method relies on grouping similar …

We conducted experimental and numerical studies aimed at developing a microfluidic
device capable of simultaneous mixing while pumping. The proposed multifunctional device …

The present studies of AC electroosmosis (ACEO) micropumps for simultaneous pumping
and mixing are mainly involved in the designs of the planar electrode pairs in a rectangular …

Recently, ac electro-osmosis (ACEO) has attracted intensive attention due to its capabilities
of pumping and mixing enhancement with relatively low voltages. In this paper, we report the …

This paper deals with parametrical studies focused on determination of selected
characteristics of AC electroosmotic micropumps in non-linear (high-amplitude) regimes in …

This paper proposes the patterned AC electroosmotic flows (AC-EOF) by simply grouping
discrete electrodes together to form various electrode configurations for generation of in …
