Abstract: | This review article will summarize recent developments in the employment of dipolar coupled magnetic particle structures. We will discuss the basics of magnetic dipolar particle interaction in static and rotating magnetic fields. In dependence on the magnetic fields employed, agglomerates of different dimensionality may form within the carrier liquid. The stability and formation dynamics of these particle structures will be presented. Furthermore, we will review recent microfluidic applications based on the interaction of magnetic particles and present methods for surface patterning with micron-sized and nano-sized particles which employ dipolar particle coupling. |
