Acoustic actuation of fluids at small scales may finally enable a comprehensive lab-on-a-
chip revolution in microfluidics, overcoming long-standing difficulties in fluid and particle …

The ability to manipulate and sort droplets is a fundamental issue in droplet-based
microfluidics. Various lab-on-a-chip applications can only be realized if droplets are …

Over the past few decades, acoustofluidics, one of the branches of microfluidics, has rapidly
developed as a multidisciplinary cutting edge research topic, covering many biomedical and …

The realization of microscale total analysis systems and lab-on-a-chip technologies requires
efficient actuation (mixing, pumping, atomizing, nebulizing, driving, etc.) of fluids on the …

Concentration and separation of particles and biological specimens are fundamental
functions of micro/nanofluidic systems. Acoustic streaming is an effective and biocompatible …

Measles is one of the most infectious airborne viruses worldwide. With a basic reproduction
rate between 12–18, this virus is six times more infectious than the SARS‐CoV‐2 Alpha …

Fast and controllable surface acoustic wave (SAW) driven digital microfluidic temperature
changes are demonstrated. Within typical operating conditions, the direct acoustic heating …

Surface acoustic waves (SAWs) have the potential to become the basis for a wide gamut of
lab-on-a-chips (LoCs). These mechanical waves are among the most promising physics that …

We report a miniaturised platform for continuous production of single or multiple liquid
droplets with diameters between 60 and 500 μm by interfacing a capillary-driven self …

This review focuses on the development of surface acoustic wave-enabled acoustic drop
ejection (SAW-ADE) technology, which utilizes surface acoustic waves to eject droplets from …
