DOI: 10.1002/elps.202000156 This image shows the dielectrophoretic separation of different particles based on their size. The small green particles experience positive DEP and are attracted to the high intensity electric field region shown by the converging electric field lines. The larger yellow particles are experiencing negative DEP and are being pushed out towards the direction of the diverging electric field. The red glow in the region of field line convergence represents the spatial distribution of the field throughout the space between the field lines themselves. This depiction represents the dielectrophoresis technique in general without the electrodes in view.
