SORTING COLLOIDAL PARTICLES INTO MULTIPLE CHANNELS WITH OPTICAL FORCES: PRISMATIC OPTICAL FRACTIONATION

摘要

A method and system for controlled fractionation of particles. A sample having a plurality of particles of different size distributions. A uniform array for the preparing of optical traps having a selected array lattice constant. The plurality of particles for inputting the plurality of particles to the uniform array of optical traps at a driving direction angle and the plurality of particles separating along different directions based on variable particle attributes.
