Abstract
In this work, we demonstrate that positive net flow can be induced and controlled with relatively low potential due to the parallel alignment of the integrated channel electrodes. Therefore, we present a novel method to exquisitely control Electro Osmotic Flow (EOF) by using integrated electrodes fabricated beneath a meandering channel geometry (Figure 1). Equation 1 describes EOF velocity for AC-driven flow, where εo and εr respectively are the permittivity of vacuum and that of water, ζ the zeta potential at the solid liquid interface, η the viscosity, Ex the electric field:
