Acoustic tweezers comprising a surface acoustic wave chip and a disposable silicon microfluidic chip are potentially advantageous to stable and cost-ffective acoustofluidic experiments while avoiding the cross-contamination by reusing the…

This work treats the dynamics of pairs of microelectromechanical ultrasound transducers (MUTs) that are immersed in water and acoustically coupled through the fluid medium. A series of these transducer pairs with varying diameters (and thus…

A finite-element model is presented for numerical simulation in three dimensions of acoustophoresis of suspended microparticles in a microchannel embedded in a polymer chip and driven by an attached piezoelectric transducer at MHz…

In acoustofluidics, acoustic resonance modes for fluid and microparticle handling are traditionally excited by bulk piezoelectric transducers. In this work, we demonstrate by numerical simulation in three dimensions (3D) that integrated…

In fluid-filled microchannels embedded in solid devices and driven by MHz ultrasound transducers, the thickness of the viscous boundary layer in the fluid near the confining walls is typically 3 to 4 orders of magnitude smaller than the…

A theoretical model of thermal boundary layers and acoustic heating in microscale acoustofluidic devices is presented. It includes effective boundary conditions allowing for simulations in three dimensions. The model is extended by an…

Using a previously well-tested numerical model, we demonstrate theoretically that good acoustophoresis can be obtained in a microchannel embedded in an acoustically soft, all-polymer chip, by excitation of whole-system ultrasound…

The mechanical and electrical response of acoustophoretic microfluidic devices attached to an ac-voltage-driven piezoelectric transducer is studied by means of numerical simulations. The governing equations are formulated in a variational…

An ultrasonic transducer technology to generate wideband impulses using a one-dimensional chain of spheres was previously presented. The Hertzian contact between the spheres causes the nonlinearity of the system to increase, which…

In this work, we present a numerical model specifically designed for 3D multilayer devices, with a focus on nanobridge junctions and coplanar waveguides. Unlike existing numerical models, ours does not approximate the physical layout or…

Light-sound interactions have long been exploited in various acousto-optic devices based on bulk crystalline materials. Conventionally these devices operate in megahertz frequency range where the acoustic wavelength is much longer than the…

Acoustic tweezers are gaining increasing attention due to their excellent biological compatibility. Recently, the concept of topology has been expanded from condensed matter physics into acoustics, giving rise to a robust wave manipulation…

We study the thermal conductance across solid-solid interfaces as the composition of an intermediate matching layer is varied. In absence of phonon-phonon interactions, an added layer can make the interfacial conductance increase or…

Acoustic matching layers are widely employed in high-frequency transducers which are excited by different signal types depending on applications. In this study, a theoretical method has been proposed to investigate the dependence of…

Significant reduction in target strength and radiation signature can be achieved by surrounding an object with multiple concentric layers comprised of three acoustic fluids. The idea is to make a finely layered shell with the thickness of…

Underwater acoustic transducers often include a stack of thickness polarized piezoelectric material pieces of alternating polarity interspersed with electrodes, bonded together and electrically connected in parallel. The stack is normally…

In this paper we investigate different types of couplings used in acoustic metamaterials requiring preservation of symmetries. For testing we use the SSH model to test whether topologically edge and interface modes are supported with the…
