Colloidal particles like polystyrene beads and metallic micro and nanoparticles are known to assemble in crystal-like structures near an electrode surface under both DC and AC electric fields. Various studies have shown that this self-assembly is governed by a balance between an attractive electrohydrodynamic (EHD) force and an induced dipole-dipole repulsion (Trau et al., 1997). The EHD force originates from electrolyte flow caused by interaction between the electric field and the polarized double layers of both the particles and the electrode surface. The particles are found to either aggregate or repel from each other on application of electric field depending on the mobility of the ions in the electrolyte (Woehl et al., 2014). The particle motion in the electrode plane is studied well under various conditions however, not as many references are available in the literature that discuss the effects of the AC electric field on their out-of-plane motion, especially at high frequencies (>10 kHz). Haughey and Earnshaw (1998), and Fagan et al. (2005) have studied the particle motion perpendicular to the electrode plane and their average height from the electrode mostly in presence of DC or low frequency AC (10 kHz) electric field on the particles’ motion perpendicular to the electrode plane. |
