We demonstrate a novel concept to heat a drop. Temperature rise occurs when high frequency (10-50 kHz) AC actuation voltage (270 Vrms-460 Vrms) is applied on the dielectric coated coplanar electrodes. The temperature rise (up to 40 °C) inside the drop provides calibrated high temperatures for enabling chemical reactions on Lab-on a-Chip devices. Droplet spreading along the electrode gap happens as this actuation regime also coincides with dielectrophoresis. The proposed technique does not require separate microheaters on the chip as electrodes designed for droplet actuation can be used to achieve localized heating.
