Nanoliter-Droplet Acoustic Streaming via Ultra High Frequency Surface Acoustic Waves
The relevant length scales in sub-nanometer amplitude surface acoustic wave-driven acoustic streaming are demonstrated. We demonstrate the absence of any physical limitations preventing the downscaling of SAW-driven internal streaming to nanoliter microreactors and beyond by extending SAW microfluidics up to operating frequencies in the GHz range. This method is applied to nanoliter scale fluid...
متن کاملMonitoring of corrosion damage using high-frequency guided ultrasonic waves
Due to adverse environmental conditions corrosion can develop during the life cycle of industrial structures, e.g., offshore oil platforms, ships, and desalination plants. Both pitting corrosion and generalized corrosion leading to wall thickness loss can cause the degradation of the integrity and load bearing capacity of the structure. Structural health monitoring of corrosion damage in diffic...
متن کاملPiezoelectric ultrasonic micro/milli-scale actuators
A growing demand for actuators with a volume of less than 1 mm3 has driven researchers to produce a varied range of micro/milli-scale designs. By examining the underlying physics of the actuator operation we are able to demonstrate why piezoelectric ultrasonic actuators have the greatest potential to meet this need. Moreover, it allows us to create a new classification system for piezoelectric ...
متن کاملSuperheterodyne Detection of High Frequency Acoustic Waves
A laser ultrasonic system that allows for the excitation and detection of high frequency (GHz range) acoustic waves using low frequency, low cost detection electronics is presented. A continuous wave diode laser source, operating at a wavelength of 1544nm, is amplitude modulated using an integrated electro-absorption modulator and used to excite high frequency, narrow bandwidth acoustic waves. ...
متن کاملCapillary wave motion excited by high frequency surface acoustic waves
This paper presents a numerical and experimental study of capillary wave motion excited by high frequency surface acoustic waves SAWs . The objective of this study is to provide insight into the dynamic behavior of the fluid free surface and its dependence on the excitation amplitude. A two-dimensional numerical model that couples the motion of the piezoelectric substrate to a thin liquid layer...
