Solitary surface acoustic waves.
Solitary acoustic pulses can propagate along the surface of a coated homogeneous and inhomogeneous medium. It is shown how these nonlinear surface acoustic waves evolve out of initial pulselike conditions generated by pulsed laser excitation and how they can be monitored by optical detection. The solitary pulse shapes at the surface are computed on the basis of an evolution equation with nonloc...
متن کاملSwimming Using Surface Acoustic Waves
Microactuation of free standing objects in fluids is currently dominated by the rotary propeller, giving rise to a range of potential applications in the military, aeronautic and biomedical fields. Previously, surface acoustic waves (SAWs) have been shown to be of increasing interest in the field of microfluidics, where the refraction of a SAW into a drop of fluid creates a convective flow, a p...
متن کاملUltrafast microfluidics using surface acoustic waves.
We demonstrate that surface acoustic waves (SAWs), nanometer amplitude Rayleigh waves driven at megahertz order frequencies propagating on the surface of a piezoelectric substrate, offer a powerful method for driving a host of extremely fast microfluidic actuation and microbioparticle manipulation schemes. We show that sessile drops can be translated rapidly on planar substrates or fluid can be...
متن کاملAligning Nanowires by Standing Surface Acoustic Waves
We present a standing surface acoustic wave (SSAW) based approach to achieve one-dimensional (1D) and two-dimensional (2D) alignment of nanowires (NWs). Our SSAW-based nanowire-aligning technique can be used to construct large-scale (e.g., centimeter scale) network of nanowires within 5 min. In this approach, we use interdigital transducers deposited on a piezoelectric substrate to generate dif...
متن کاملSurface Acoustic Waves to Drive Plant Transpiration
Emerging fields of research in electronic plants (e-plants) and agro-nanotechnology seek to create more advanced control of plants and their products. Electronic/nanotechnology plant systems strive to seamlessly monitor, harvest, or deliver chemical signals to sense or regulate plant physiology in a controlled manner. Since the plant vascular system (xylem/phloem) is the primary pathway used to...
