From The Engineer:
Researchers at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute have demonstrated that liquids embedded with nanoparticles show some interesting properties when exposed to electric fields.
The manipulation of small volumes of liquid is critical for fluidic digital display devices, optical devices, and microelectromechanical systems such as lab-on-chip analysis systems. Yet most research into such systems to date has been conducted with regular liquids, but not nanofluids, which are liquids embedded with different nanoparticles.
