Furthermore, the dy namic and reconfigurable patterns can not be achieved by using metal/structure-based DEP chip. T his article presents two strategies of light-induced dielectrophoresis (LIDEP) for passive, dynamic and continuous separation of microparticles. LIDEP enables to achieve the parallel manipulation of particles without complicated or expensive microfabrication processes, such as photolithography and metal deposition/ etching. Wit h t his approach, users are able to define t he unlimited geometries such as dy namic patterns, changeable patterns, gray-scale patterns, and reconf igurable strategies for realizing the variable electric f ield distribution. Gray-scale light-induced dielectrophoresis (GS-LIDEP) generated a wide-ranged DEP force that is capable of working on the entire area 39 NANO COMMUN
