The bulk acoustic modes of liquid droplets, well understood from a theoretical perspective, have rarely been observed experimentally. Here, we report the direct observation of acoustic vibrational modes in a picoliter-scale droplet,…
The acoustic coupling between two air bubbles immersed in water is clearly demonstrated. The system is acoustically forced, and its response is detected. The experimental results confirm that both theoretically predicted eigenmodes,…
The authors introduce dynamics of multiple air bubbles exposed to ultrasonic wave while ascending in water in the present fluid dynamics video. The authors pay attention to the shape oscillation and the transition from the volume to the…
We describe a system for interrogating the acoustic properties of sub-nanoliter liquid samples within an open microfluidics platform. Sessile droplets were deposited onto integrated optomechanical sensors, which possess…
Increasing the number of closely-packed air bubbles immersed in water changes the frequency of the Minnaert resonance. The collective interactions between bubbles in a small ensemble are primarily in the same phase, causing them to radiate…
Minnaert resonance is a well known physical phenomenon and it has many important applications, in particular in the effective realisation of acoustic metamaterials using bubbly mediums in recent years. In this paper, motived by the Minnaert…
The bubble nucleation in superheated liquid can be controlled by adjusting the ambient pressure and temperature. At higher pressure the threshold energy for bubble nucleation increases and we have observed that the amplitude of the acoustic…
Currently, optical- or mechanical-resonances are commonly used in microfluidic research. However, optomechanical oscillations by light pressure were not shown with liquids. This is because replacing the surrounding air with water inherently…
We present experimental evidence that a bubble moving in a fluid in which a well-chosen acoustic noise is superimposed can be significantly slowed down for moderate acoustic pressures. Through mean velocity measurements, we show that a…
Microbubbles excited by acoustic fields inside water oscillate, and generate acoustic radiation forces and drag-induced acoustic streaming. These forces can be harnessed in various biomedical applications such as targeted drug delivery and…
We report the development of a novel measurement system designed to measure bubble properties in bubble curtains (i.e. planar bubble plumes) in-situ alongside acoustical measurements. Our approach is based on electrical, contact-based…
Wave localization is a ubiquitous phenomenon. It refers to situations that transmitted waves in scattering media are trapped in space and remain confined in the vicinity of the initial site until dissipated. Here we report a phase…
We present a class of sonic meta-screens for manipulating air-borne acoustic waves at ultrasonic or audible frequencies. Our screens consist of periodic arrangements of air bubbles in water or possibly embedded in a soft elastic matrix.…
We propose a low-dimensional modeling approach to simulate the dynamics, acoustic emissions and interactions of cavitation bubbles, based on a quasi-acoustic assumption. This quasi-acoustic assumption accounts for the compressibility of the…
The study of the acoustic emission of underwater gas bubbles is a subject of both theoretical and applied interest, since it finds an important application in the development of acoustic monitoring tools for detection and quantification of…
Here we show that in ultrasonic fields the phenomenon of reconversion of shear-modes into an effective compressional wave has a significant effect for bubbles in a medium viscosity liquid or weak gel. We present the consequent extra terms…
We present an analytical model for the frequency response of a gas microbubble oscillating near a spherical inclusion of arbitrary size and mechanical nature (rigid, fluid, or viscoelastic) immersed in a viscous compressible fluid. The…
We analyze mathematically the acoustic imaging modality using bubbles as contrast agents. These bubbles are modeled by mass densities and bulk moduli enjoying contrasting scales. These contrasting scales allow them to resonate at certain…
We study the time-domain acoustic wave propagation in the presence of a micro-bubble. This micro-bubble is characterized by a mass density and bulk modulus which are both very small as compared to the ones of the background vacuum. The goal…
Deep-subwavelength acoustic resonators are key building blocks of acoustic metamaterials, yet achieving bubble-like resonances in air remains challenging because the Minnaert mechanism relies on the inertia of a surrounding liquid. Here we…
