Abstract

Particle micromanipulation using traveling waves is an essential field based on the interaction of several factors. Among the main elements that influence this technique are the geometry of the traveling wave conveyor (two-phase or three-phase), the intensity of the electric field and the environmental conditions. The aim of this study is to analyze and optimize the geometric, electrical and environmental parameters that affect particle micromanipulation using traveling waves. By gaining a deeper understanding of these parameters and their interactions, the work aims to improve the efficiency and accuracy of this technique. This includes optimizing the geometry of the support, identifying the most effective electrode design to generate a dynamic electric field that allows the particles to be moved accurately. Controlling the electric field by adjusting the multiphase voltages applied to the electrodes to create an optimal electric field suitable for various micromanipulation applications. Stabilization of environmental conditions, assessing the impact of humidity on the micromanipulation process.
