Trapping and manipulation of micro and nanoparticles are essential functional elements of lab-on-a-chip and micro total analysis systems with applications ranging from single cell analysis, diagnostics, drug discovery, and chemical synthesis. Reliable optical trapping of subwavelength particles is difficult due to the diffraction limited gradient of the optical intensity. Near-field traps have emerged as excellent systems to overcome this bottleneck. Using a periodic arrangement of C-shaped apertures we demonstrate the on-chip manipulation of single sub-wavelength polystyrene beads. The wavelength and polarization sensitivity of these resonant nanostructures is exploited to expose the trapped bead to a time varying near-field force using wavelength and polarization multiplexing schemes. While optical trapping has the advantage of being contactless, dielectrophoresis provides higher forces due to the flexibility of applying larger voltages and field gradients. The RF/Microwave frequency regime where dielectrophoresis operates allows increased polarizability of certain samples due to contribution from orientational, molecular and atomic polarizations as well as particle’s electrical conductivity. Combining the above advantages of both the techniques we discuss photoinduced dielectrophoretic trapping and manipulation of nanoparticles. Using dielectrophoretic trapping we discuss the simultaneous manipulation of beads and droplets as a route for on chip chemical synthesis.
