Abstract
Described is a fluidic microsystem () including at least one channel () through which a particle suspension can flow; and first and second electrode devices () which are arranged on first and second channel walls () for generating electrical alternating-voltage fields in the channel (); wherein the first electrode device () for field shaping in the channel includes at least one first structure element (); and the second electrode device () includes an area-like electrode layer () with a closed second electrode surface which includes a second passivation layer (); wherein the effective electrode surface of the first structure element (), of which element () there is at least one, is smaller than the second electrode surface; and the second passivation layer () is a closed layer which completely covers the second electrode layer ().
