Title: Optical particle sorting on an optofluidic chip. Author: Leake KD, Phillips BS, Yuzvinsky TD, Hawkins AR, Schmidt H. Journal: Opt Express; 2013 Dec 30; 21(26):32605-10. PubMed ID: 24514854. Abstract: We report size-based sorting of micro- and sub-micron particles using optical forces on a planar optofluidic chip. Two different combinations of fluid flow and optical beam directions in liquid-core waveguides are demonstrated. These methods allow for tunability of size selection and sorting with efficiencies as high as 100%. Very good agreement between experimental results and calculated particle trajectories in the presence of flow and optical forces is found.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
