Shear-Induced Electrophoretic Migration Perpendicular to the Electric Field
Andrés Rodríguez-Galán, Raúl Fernández-Mateo, Pablo García-Sánchez +1
Recent experiments combining electrophoresis with pressure-driven flows in microchannels have revealed that microparticles undergo lateral migration perpendicular to the applied el…
Understanding the Origin of a Second Mobility Reversal in Optoelectrically Powered Metallo-Dielectric Janus Particles
Sankha Shuvra Das, Pablo Garcia-Sanchez, Antonio Ramos +1
While previous studies indicated the mobility reversal of an electrically-powered metallo-dielectric Janus particle (JP) with increasing frequency, here we report an intriguing sec…
The influence of frequency and gravity on the orientation of active metallo-dielecric Janus particles translating under a uniform applied alternating-current electric field
Alicia Boymelgreen, Golak Kunti, Pablo Garcia Sanchez +1
Theoretical and numerical models of active Janus particles commonly assume that the metallo-dielectric interface is parallel to the driving applied electric field. However, our exp…
Dielectrophoretic Equilibrium of Complex Particles
Tom Elkeles, Pablo Garcia-Sanchez, Wu Yue +2
In contrast to the commonly used spherical Janus particles, here we used engineered Janus particles that are fabricated using photolithography technique for precise control over th…
The microfluidic Kelvin water dropper
Alvaro G. Marin, Wim van Hoeve, Pablo García-Sánchez +6
The so-called "Kelvin water dropper" is a simple experiment demonstrating the spontaneous appearance of induced free charge in droplets emitted through a tube. As Lord Kelvin expla…
Effect of the difference in ion mobilities on traveling-wave electro-osmosis
Antonio Gonzalez, Antonio Ramos, Pablo Garcia-Sanchez +1
We analyze the AC electro-osmotic motion of a 1:1 aqueous solution, taking into account the difference in mobilities and diffusion coefficients between positive and negative ions.…
