dc.description.abstractUnder the simultaneous use of pressure-driven flow and DC electric field, migration of particles inside microfluidic channels exhibits intricate focusing dynamics. Available experimental and analytical studies fall short in giving a thorough explanation to particle equilibrium states. Also, the understanding is so far limited to the results based on Newtonian and neutral viscoelastic carrier fluids. Hence, a holistic approach is taken in this study to elaborate the interplay of governing electrophoretic and slip-induced/elastic/shear gradient lift forces. First, we carried out experimental studies on particle migration in Newtonian, neutral viscoelastic, and polyelectrolyte viscoelastic media to provide a comprehensive understanding of particle migration. The experiments with the viscoelastic media led to contradictory results with the existing explanations. Then, we introduced the Electro-Viscoelastic Migration (EVM) theory to give a unifying explanation to particle migration in Newtonian and viscoelastic solutions. Confocal imaging with fluorescent-labeled polymer solutions was used to explore the underlying migration behavior. A surprising outcome of our results is the formation of cross-sectionally nonuniform viscoelasticity that may have unique applications in microfluidic particle focusing.en_US
