Abstract

The influence of the Stern layer conductance on the dielectrophoretic behavior of sub-micrometer-sized latex spheres is examined. The dielectrophoretic response of the particles is measured and analyzed in terms of a model of surface conductance divided into discrete components related to the structure of the double layer. The effect of both co- and counterions in the bulk solution on the Stern layer conductance is demonstrated.
