1 1 2 1 Optically-induced AC electroosmosis (ACEO) flow in the optoelectrofluidic device 2

3 The ACEO flow could be observed with relatively small microbeads at the top and the

4 bottom surfaces as shown in Fig. S1. The particles came toward the light pattern near the bottom

5 surface. Then they showed vertical movement to the top electrode and moved away from the light

6 pattern along the top surface. These whole movements were in full accord with the distinguishing

7 feature of the ACEO flow in the optoelectrofluidic system.
