Abstract

The manipulation, transport, and assembly of microobjects is of paramount importance for microengineering and biological applications. Among the earliest approaches were microelectromechanical systems based microgrippers.[1, 2] They represent a very versatile tool that might be used for handling fragile objects from millimeter to micron size.[3, 4] Noncontact manipulation can be achieved by electrostatic actuators evolved from tip-like actuators [5] to cilia-inspired structures...
