Abstract
We present a label-free method capable of rapidly sorting particles based on their densities. Our device relies on deterministic lateral displacement (DLD) and achieves density fractionation by the use of T-shaped posts. By combining it with a lateral density gradient we achieve a density separation that is independent of size within a range given by the device geometry. Herein we present a proof-of-principle method which, in comparison to traditional density-separation techniques, is suitable for lab-on-a-chip environment.
