  • To demonstrate manipulation into conventionally inaccessible regions beneath microstructures.

Main Methods:

  • Implementation of a micro-ring actuator system.
  • Application of a parametric excitation strategy for particle actuation.
  • Experimental manipulation of magnetic particles (30-50 µm diameter) in a liquid medium.

Main Results:

  • Smooth manipulation of magnetic particles along predefined trajectories was achieved.
  • Particles were successfully moved into a challenging region beneath re-entrant walls of a silicon chip.
  • The system demonstrated effective control without the need for visual feedback.

Conclusions:

  • The proposed micro-ring actuator and parametric excitation strategy offer a robust solution for magnetic particle manipulation.
  • This technique enhances precision and accessibility in microfluidic and nanotechnology applications.
  • The method overcomes limitations of conventional visual servo control systems.
