Published: December 1999

An analysis of the dielectrophoretic crossover frequency as a function of medium conductivity has been made for submicron spheres with different surface functionalities. It is shown that the AC electrokinetic behavior of the particles can be explained by modeling the surface conductivity of the particle as the sum of two surface conductance components: one due to charge motion behind the slip plane (the Stern layer) and the other due to charge motion in front of the slip plane.
