Acoustic tweezers can manipulate microscopic objects and cells independently of the optical, magnetic and electrical properties of the objects or their medium. However, because ultrasonic waves are attenuated within few millimeters,…
The contactless selective manipulation of individual objects at the microscale is powerfully enabled by acoustical tweezers based on acoustical vortices [Baudoin et al., Sci. Adv., 5:eaav1967 (2019)]. Nevertheless, the ability to assemble…
Vortex-based single-beam tweezers have the ability to precisely and selectively move a wide range of objects, including particles, bubbles, droplets, and cells with sizes ranging from the millimeter to micrometer scale. In 2017, Karlsen and…
Holographic acoustical tweezers (HAT) based on Archimedes-Fermat spiraling InterDigitated Transducers (S-IDTs) are a versatile tool for the selective manipulation of microparticles [Baudoin et. al., Sci. Adv., 5: eaav1967 (2019)] and cells…
Selective acoustic tweezers can focus the acoustic radiation force on a single particle to manipulate it without affecting its neighbors. This has long required highly complex hardware. In this numerical study, we show that pulsed acoustic…
