Efficient transportation of fluids and microparticles is an important capability in many medical
and biological applications. In this article, an efficient bi-directional micropump using …

Silica has rarely been used as a seed particle material in acoustic trap** of nanoparticles.
Here we use fluorescent nanoparticles, which are frequently used as a model system, to …

Handling of submicron-sized objects is important in many biochemical and biomedical
applications, but few methods today can precisely manipulate this range of particles. We …

General defocusing particle tracking (GDPT) is a single-camera, three-dimensional particle
tracking method that determines the particle depth positions from the defocusing patterns of …

Acoustic waves can generate steady streaming within a fluid owing to the generation of
viscous boundary layers near walls of typical thickness δ. In microchannels, the acoustic …

Acoustic streaming is an ubiquitous phenomenon resulting from time-averaged nonlinear
dynamics in oscillating fluids. In this theoretical study, we show that acoustic streaming can …

Acoustic streaming created by sharp-edged structures in micromixers can achieve a
homogeneous and quick mixing. This study is performed numerically on the mixing …

We present three-dimensional measurements of particle-size-dependent acoustophoretic
motion of microparticles with diameters from 4.8 μ m down to 0.5 μ m suspended in either …
