Norfolk, VA 23529, USA 2 Bioengineering College, Chongqing University, Chongqing 400030, P.R. China Abstract Interfacial electrokinetic phenomena, which highly depend on the surface charge property of an object in contact with an aqueous electrolyte solution, have been widely used to manipulate and transport ions, fluids and particles in micro/nanofluidic devices. Field effect transistor (FET) offers flexible and rapid control of the surface charge property, which in turn provides a more sophisticated
