Abstract :
It is significant research approach in the field of manipulation and sorting of a small size of particle and molecule with dimensions of tens to hundreds of nanometers in a microfluidic chip. It is a breakthrough research that provides new solutions and opportunities for a wide range of traditional micro-/nano-particle and molecule sorting, manipulation and detection by using optofluidic force. Also, this new innovation allows scientists and researchers to tackle many classical problems with novel tools and new research ideas.
