Thermocapillary Convective Flows Generated by Laser Points or Patterns: Comparison for the Noncontact Micromanipulation of Particles at the Interface

Ronald Terrazas Mallea, Dimitri Piron, Aude Bolopion, Pierre Lambert, Michaël Gauthier

RA-L 2018

This letter compares the controlled manipulation of micrometer size particles using thermocapillary convective flows generated by laser points or patterns. Such flows are generated when a surface tension stress is generated at the fluid/gas interface due to a thermal gradient. Laser heating allows t

1D manipulation of a micrometer size particle actuated via thermocapillary convective flows

Ronald Terrazas Mallea, Aude Bolopion, Jean-Charles Beugnot, Pierre Lambert, Michael Gauthier

IROS 2017poster

This paper deals with the open-loop characterization of a micromanipulation system actuated by thermocapillary convective flows. Micrometric size objects placed at the air/liquid interface are actuated by heating the surface of the liquid using a laser. The heat generates a surface tension gradient…
