Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

A novel, ring-shaped optical electrode is employed to reduce heating in light-actuated digital microfluidics. Using thermo-sensitive hydrogel microspheres, the temperature rise is measured to be 0.35°C, about 15x lower than those using square electrodes.
