Determination of the Dielectrophoretic Force Induced by the Photovoltaic Effect on Lithium Niobate

Determination of the Dielectrophoretic Force Induced by the Photovoltaic Effect on Lithium Niobate

The actuation of droplets on a surface is extremely relevant for microfluidic applications. In recent years, various methodologies have been used. A promising solution relies on iron-doped lithium niobate crystals that, when illuminated, generate an evanescent electric field in the surrounding space...
