The technique of acoustic levitation normally produces a standing wave and the potential
well of the sound field can be used to trap small objects. Since no solid surface is involved it …

During the spray process, many factors control the disintegration of the liquid sheet at the
exit of a nozzle operating in an ambient atmosphere. Understanding the role of these …

Acoustic levitation has the potential to enable novel studies due to its ability to hold a wide
variety of substances against gravity under container-less conditions. It has found …

Colloidal particles can be adsorbed at fluid–fluid interfaces, a phenomenon frequently
observed in particle-stabilized foams, Pickering emulsions, and bijels. Particles adsorbed at …

The use of optical trapping techniques to manipulate probe particles for performing micro-
rheological measurements on a surrounding fluid is well-established. Here, we review …

Hypothesis Acoustic levitation provides the possibility to deform levitated droplets in a
controllable, and quantifiable manner, thus offering a means to measure the surface tension …

Acoustic levitation can be employed to hold liquid drops in midair, enabling novel
applications in X-ray scattering of proteins, amorphous crystallization of solutions, or …

The combination of acoustically levitated droplets, mid-IR laser evaporation, and
subsequent post-ionization by secondary electrospray ionization was applied for monitoring …

A finite element analysis and a parametric optimization of single-axis acoustic levitators are
presented. The finite element method is used to simulate a levitator consisting of a Langevin …

Two-phase liquid-liquid systems are prevalent in a range of commercial and environmental
applications. Understanding the behavior of liquid-liquid systems under various processing …
