Abstract
We present here a method for sorting nanometer scale brownian rods by using a switching asymmetric periodic potential. A two stage sorting process is used to isolate particles with specific dimensions, with acceptable sorting times as well as realizable potential barrier lengths. The method was tested using computer simulations. The ability to sort the nanometer scale anisotropic particles, such as gold nanorods, portends important applications in large scale data recording, photothermal surgery, and bioimaging.
