Abstract
In this study, the fundamental three dimensional particles manipulation properties with a dielectrophoresis (DEP) are investigated by a particle tracking method and a deconvolution technique between planar parallel electrodes in a minichannel. These properties are important to develop three-dimensional particle separation and classification systems for medical and industrial applications. As results, three dimensional particles behavior with a DEP force near planer electrode are observed and the effect of the electric field intensity and frequency on the particle velocities are clarified.
