Possibility for separation of polarizable molecules using electric fields

The motion of polarizable molecules in the presence of nonuniform electric fields is analyzed. The separation of molecular flows in the presence of such fields is theoretically demonstrated. Angular dispersions are estimated for endofullerene (Sc@C$_{82}$, Y@C$_{82}$, La@C$_{82}$, and Gd@C$_{82}$) and fullerene (C$_{60}$, C$_{70}$, C$_{82}$, and C$_{84}$) molecules in the presence of the field that is generated by a system of parallel charged wires using the known dipole moments and polarizabilities. The numerical simulation shows that a separator of polarizable molecules can be constructed using such fields.
