<p>The present invention provides electromagnetic energy driven separation methods, including methods for separating molecules in a mixture, for increasing diffusion rate of a substance in a medium, and for moving fluids on a substrate. Such methods work with extremely small volumes of target and may be used for medical diagnosis and treatment. The method of the figure involves providing a laser pulse to create pressure waves in a matrix, the pressure waves creating a force on particles in the matrix such that the diffusion rate of particles in the matrix is increased relative to its surrounding environment.</p> |
