    On-chip integrated nanowire devices with controllable nanogap for manipulation, capturing, and electrical characterization of nanoparticles
    (IEEE, 2009) Uran, Can; Ünal, Emre; Kizil, R.; Demir, Hilmi Volkan
    Dielectrophoresis (DEP) allows for electric field assisted assembly in spatially non-uniform field distribution, where the induced moment is translated into a net force on polarized particles towards the high field gradient. For example, for a spherical particle of radius r with a permittivity constant ofεp in a host medium with the permittivity ofε m, the dielectrophoretic force is given by (1): where r is the particle radius, ω is the angular frequency and Erms is the root mean square electric field. K is the Clausius-Mossotti function, which depends on the complex permittivity of the spherical particle and the medium [1].IEEE.
