| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this research, we have developed a non-contact manipulation method by using fluid field generated by on-chip microrobot for fine positioning of single particle and living cell. The newly developed experimental platform with a high-speed actuator and a high-speed camera was used to investigate the basic characteristics of the generated fluid field. As a result, we found that it is highly required to compensate the disturbance of fluid flow for improving the positioning accuracy of single target during the manipulation. By adjusting the control parameter (amplitude and frequency) of the microrobot in real time, we succeeded in 10 um order positioning of single microparticle by non-contact actuation. Finally, the developed manipulation technique was applied to stimulate a single swimming-microorganism under the stable environment of closed microchip. The unique dynamic behavior of Paramecium was observed after the local point stimulation.
