Independent Study: Microfluidic Channel for Acoustic Particle Manipulation
نویسندگان
چکیده
To study acoustic microfluidic particle manipulation, a microfluidic channel was designed in AutoCAD and fabricated in a silicon wafer using potassium hydroxide etching and other cleanroom techniques. The first channel created was destructively tested and its fabrication techniques characterized; future channel development is outlined.

Surface acoustic wave-induced precise particle manipulation in a trapezoidal glass microfluidic channel
Surface acoustic wave (SAW) excitation of an acoustic field in a trapezoidal glass microfluidic channel for particle manipulation in continuous flow has been demonstrated. A unidirectional interdigital transducer (IDT) on a Y-cut Z-propagation lithium niobate (LiNbO3) substrate was used to excite a surface acoustic wave at approximately 35 MHz. An SU8 layer was used for adhesive bonding of the ...
متن کاملSurface acoustic wave induced particle manipulation in a PDMS channel--principle concepts for continuous flow applications.
A device for acoustic particle manipulation in the 40 MHz range for continuous-flow operation in a 50 μm wide PDMS channel has been evaluated. Unidirectional interdigital transducers on a Y-cut Z-propagation lithium nixobate wafer were used to excite a surface acoustic wave that generated an acoustic standing wave inside the microfluidic channel. It was shown that particle alignment nodes with ...
متن کاملCombination Ultrasonic- Dielectrophoretic Particle Traps for Particle Trapping and Sample Purification in a Microfluidic Channel
Ultrasonic and dielectrophoretic particle manipulation have been studied for particle trajectory modification and particle trapping in microfluidic channels. We report an approach that combines dielectrophoresis (DEP) and ultrasonic fields to trap and concentrate particles and cells in an aqueous suspension. By simultaneously applying electric and ultrasonic fields to the sample, the favorable ...
متن کاملSpatial confinement of ultrasonic force fields in microfluidic channels.
We demonstrate and investigate multiple localized ultrasonic manipulation functions in series in microfluidic chips. The manipulation functions are based on spatially separated and confined ultrasonic primary radiation force fields, obtained by local matching of the resonance condition of the microfluidic channel. The channel segments are remotely actuated by the use of frequency-specific exter...
