چکیده

A novel, miniaturized optoelectronic tweezers (OET) system has been developed using a CMOS-controlled GaN micro-pixelated light emitting diode (LED) array as an integrated micro-light source. The micro-LED array offers spatio-temporal and intensity control of the emission pattern, enabling the creation of reconfigurable virtual electrodes to achieve OET. In order to analyse the mechanism responsible for particle manipulation in this OET system, the average particle velocity, electrical field and forces applied to the particles were characterized and simulated. The capability of this miniaturized OET system for manipulating and trapping multiple particles including polystyrene beads and live cells has been successfully demonstrated.

Integration of Micro-Light-Emitting-Diode Arrays and Silicon Driver for Heterogeneous Optoelectronic Integrated Circuit Device

In this paper, we proposed the possibility of implementing a single chip device for realizing optoelectronic integrated circuits (OEICs). Micro-lightemitting-diode (LED) arrays and a complementary metal–oxide–semiconductor (CMOS) pulse width modulation (PWM) silicon driver were proposed, designed, and fabricated on a single chip. The micro-LED arrays were separated by a dry etching method into ...
