Iterative Dipole Moment Method for the Dielectrophoretic Particle-Particle Interaction in a DC Electric Field

Figure 3

The initial position of two particles are initially equispaced on a circle with θ₀ = 0 in a uniform DC electric field with E = 1 kV/m along x direction, and the final particle chains after DEP interaction under different status: (a) two negative DEP particle, (b) two positive DEP particle, and (c) one positive and one negative DEP particle.
