MOEMS Based Laser Scanning Device for Light-Driven Microfluidics

Journal Name:

Publication Year:

Abstract (2. Language): 
In this paper we present our laser scanning device, where control of the laser focus was achieved using MOEMS-technology. This offers the possibility for a compact and easy to use variable focus scanning device. First experiments were performed with the device, where laser controlled thermally induced flows were used to move polystyrene beads in an unstructured microfluidic cell, which demonstrates the capability of the device in the field of light-driven microfluidics.
