Manipulation of 10 – 40 μm Diameter Cells Using a Thermally Actuated Microgripper
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 29 May 2012
Abstract
This work presents the successful fabrication of a thermally actuated U-shaped microgripper that has been specially designed to enable low voltage operation for bidirectional in plane deflection. The microgripper tips are carefully designed to match the biological species being manipulated, which has been demonstrated by the successful manipulation of 10 – 40 μm diameter particles used to simulate biological cells.
