Numerical analysis has been conducted to characterize deposition rates of aerosol particles onto a heated, rotating disk with electrostatic effect under the laminar flow field. The particle transport mechanisms considered were convection, Brownian diffusion, gravitational settling, thermophoresis and electrophoresis. The aerosol particles were assumed to have a Boltzmann charge distribution. The electric potential distribution needed to calculate local electric fields around the disk was calculated from the Laplace equation. The Coulomb, the image, the dielectrophoretic and the dipole-dipole forces acting on a charged particle near the conducting rotating disk were included in the analysis. The averaged particle deposition vetocities and their radial distributions on the upper surface of the disk were calculated from the particle concentration equation in a Eulerian frame of reference, along with a rotation speed of 0∼1,000rpm, a temperature difference of 0∼5K and a charged disk voltage of 0∼1000V.Finally, an approximate deposition velocity model for the rotating disk was suggested. The present numerical results showed relatively good agreement with the results of the present approximate model and the available experimental data.

The control of the number and dimension of nanowires is essential for dielectrophoretic(DEP) nanoscale assembly process. However, it is difficult to control the number of nanowires assembled between the electrodes. We have developed a nanowire diluter device, which consists of a glass substrate with gold electrodes and a PDMS layer with microchannel. The diluter device is fabricated by the conventional and soft lithographies using a SU-8 mold. Nickel nanowires (30${\mu}m$-long) are fabricated by a template-directed electrodeposition process using nanoporous alumina templates. A solution containing nanowires is injected into an inlet whereby pulsed voltages are applied to 16 pairs of electrodes in this experiment. The nanowires are trapped or released depending on the pulsed electric field from inlet to outlet (the channel). Therefore, the number of nanowires can be decreased correspondingly if the fixed frequency at each electrode is decreased from electrode to electrode.

Nano-scale p-n junction can generate various nano-scale functional devices such as nanowire light emitting diode, nanowire solar cell, and nanowire sensor. The core shell type nanowire p-n junction has been considered for the high efficient devices in many previous reports. On the other hand, although device efficiency is relatively lower, the cross bar type p-n junction has simple topological structure, suggested by C.M. Lieber group, to integrate easily many p-n junction devices in one board. In this study, for the integration of the cross bar nanowire p-n junction device, a simple fabrication route, employed dielectrophoretic array and direct printing techniques, was demonstrated by the successful fabrication and programmable integration of the nanowire cross bar p-n junction solar cell. This direct printing process will give the single nanowire solar cell the opportunity of the integration on the circuit board with other nanowire functional devices.

We report a simple, low cost, and reliable method for assembling a multi-walled nanotube (MWNT) to the end of a metal coated scanning probe microscopy (SPM) tip. By dropping the MWNT solution and applying an electric field between an SPM tip and an electrode, MWNTs which were dispersed into a dielectric solution were directly assembled onto the apex of the SPM tip due to the attraction by the dielectrophoretic force. The effective measurement of a MWNT -attached SPM tip was demonstrated by direct comparison with AFM images of a standard sample with a bare AFM tip.

The electrostatic effect on particle deposition onto a heated, Horizontal free-standing wafer surface was investigated numerically. The deposition mechanisms considered were convection, Brownian and turbulent diffusion, sedimentation, thermophoresis and electrostatic force. The electric charge on particle needed to calculate the electrostatic migration velocity induced by the local electric field was assumed to be the Boltzmann equilibrium charge. The electrostatic forces acted upon the particle included the Coulombic, image, dielectrophoretic and dipole-dipole forces based on the assumption that the particle and wafer surface are conducting. The electric potential distribution needed to calculate the local electric field around the wafer was calculated from the Laplace equation. The averaged and local deposition velocities were obtained for a temperature difference of 0-10 K and an applied voltage of 0-1000 v.The numerical results were then compared with those of the present suggested approximate model and the available experimental data. The comparison showed relatively good agreement between them.

We developed a one-step method for fabrication of addressable suspended SWNT films and demonstrate excellent detection performance of paraoxon based on OPH-immobilized SWNT films for environmental monitoring. For dispersed SWNT suspension, COOH-SWNT was prepared by the oxidation of carbon nanotubes using acid treatment and sonication. Suspended SWNT-film was fabricated between cantilever electrodes by dielectrophoretic force and surface tension of the water meniscus. After that, OPH were immobilized on suspended SWNT-films by nonspecific binding for enzymatic hydrolysis of paraoxon. The electrical properties of the SWNT films were measured in real time at room temperature. Structurally suspended SWNT films from substrate surface made possible rapid and highly sensitive detection of target molecules with increased convectional and diffusional fluxes of the molecules and with a large binding surface area. SWNT film FET resulted in a real-time, label-free, and electrical detection of paraoxon to the concentration of ca. $10{\mu}m$ with a step-wise rapid response time of several seconds.

We present full 3-D simulation of dielectrophoretic (DEP) deflection of particle trajectory in micro channel and compare the simulation results with experimental results. In simulation, the particle 3-D movements along x, y and z-axis are simulated precisely, and the streamlines of particles movements and the change of particle height are investigated experimentally. Therefore, the deflection performance is investigated on the designed and fabricated deflection microchip.

유전영동(DEP)이란 비균질의 전기장과 그에 따라 입자 내부에 형성되는 극성힘에 의해 용매에 분산되어 있는 입자에 야기되는 운동을 의미하며, 세포, 바이러스, 나노입자 등의 트래핑, 입자분류, 셀분리 등과 같은 다양한 생물학적 응용에 이용되어 왔다. 지금까지 유전영동트랩에 대한 해석은 주기평균 ponderomotive force 에 기반한 정특성 해석이 주를 이루고 있으며, 동특성에 대해서는 많은 연구가 이루어져 있지 않다. 이는 지금까지 유전영동트랩이 적용된 입자들의 크기가 상대적으로 매우 크기 때문으로, 분석입자의 크기가 매우 작은 나노단위 분석에서는 적절하지 않다. 본 연구에서는, 다양한 시스템 파라미터들에 대한 트래핑의 동역학적 반응 및 그들의 트래핑 안정성에 대한 영향을 심도깊게 관찰하고자 한다. 특히, 입자의 전도율에 따른 입자의 동특성의 변화 또한 관찰하고자 한다.

본 논문에서는 서로 다른 밀도의 유체 내 바이오 물질이 받는 중력과 부력 차를 이용한 연속적 세포 분리기를 제안하였다. 종래의 크기별 세포분리는 서로 다른 크기의 동일한 밀도를 가지는 세포를 분리하는데 한계가 있다. 반면, 본 논문에서 제안하는 세포 분리기는 미소유로 상하부에 밀도가 다른 다층 유체층 내에서 세포가 받는 중력과 부력 차이로 크기는 다르지만 동일한 밀도를 가지는 세포를 효율적으로 분리할 수 있다. 밀도가 다른 유체층(PBS, 밀도=1.0g/ml, Ficoll, 밀도=1.1g/ml) 내에서 전혈로부터 백혈구(직경=$6-10{\mu}m$, 밀도=1.06~1.1g/ml), 적혈구(직경=$4-6{\mu}m$, 밀도=1.09~1.2g/ml)를 밀도에 따라 분리한 효율이 각각 $90.9{\pm}9.1%$와 $86.4{\pm}1.99%$로 측정되었다 따라서, 본 세포 분리기는 크기 편차가 있는 동일 밀도의 세포를 크기에 둔감하고 밀도에만 민감한 분리가 가능하다.

본 논문에서는 유체흐름방향과 예각으로 놓여있는 평면 교차전극 위를 지나가는 입자의 크기에 따른 측면방향 변위에 대하여 소개한다. 아울러, 유체흐름방향과 평면 교차전극 사이의 각도에 따른 측면방향 변위의 변화를 보인다. 본 논문에서는 선전하(line charge) 모델을 이용하여 크기가 다른 세 종류의 형광 polystyrene(PS) 입자의 측면방향 변위를 이론적으로 예측하였다. 크기에 따른 입자의 측면방향 변위의 변화를 이용하여, 크기별로 입자를 연속적으로 분리할 수 있는 측면방향 유전영동 미세분리기를 개발하였다. 3, 5, 10 ${\mu}m$ PS 입자의 혼합물을 이용하여 분리한 실험결과로 부터 개발된 측면방향 유전영동 미세분리기는 3 ${\mu}m$ PS 입자를 99.86%, 5 ${\mu}m$를 98.82%, 10 ${\mu}m$를 99.69%의 높은 효율로 각각 분리할 수 있음을 확인하였다. 이로부터 제안된 측면방향 유전영동 미세분리기는 다종 혼합물로부터 다양한 크기의 입자들을 한 번에 분리하는 기술로 널리 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
