- Abstract
- Ultrasonic particle manipulation is a noncontact method for controlling microscale objects, such as cells or microparticles, using an acoustic field. In this study, a 2D array of capacitive micromachined ultrasonic transducers (CMUTs), placed horizontally in immersion, generated ultrasonic waves in the vertical direction, and the oil's surface increased due to the radiation force of the ultrasonic waves. In addition, the radiation force directly exerted a force on a floating particle. By measuring the movement of the reflected laser light by the moving oil surface, the height of the oil's surface deformed by the acoustic radiation force (ARF) was measured. The ARF made a floating particle, as well as the oil's surface, move. The particle moved radially away from the surface position above the transducer, and its velocity was determined by its position on the fluid's surface. When a single channel was operated, it moved 0.4 mm at an average speed of 90 mu m/s, and when two adjacent channels were operated, it moved 1.2 mm at a speed of 272 mu m/s. The particles moved in any direction on the surface of the oil by controlling the actuation channel using an electrical switch.
