A bubble-powered micro-rotor: conception, manufacturing, assembly, and characterization
Jonathan Kao, Xiaolin Wang, John Warren +2
A steady fluid flow, called microstreaming, can be generated in the vicinity of a micro-bubble excited by ultrasound. In this article, we use this phenomenon to assemble and power…
Control and ultrasonic actuation of a gas-liquid interface in a microfluidic chip
Jie Xu, Daniel Attinger
This article describes the design and manufacturing of a microfluidic chip, allowing for the actuation of a gas-liquid interface and of the neighboring fluid. A first way to contro…
Drop on demand in a microfluidic chip
Jie Xu, Daniel Attinger
In this work, we introduce the novel technique of in-chip drop on demand, which consists in dispensing picoliter to nanoliter drops on demand directly in the liquid-filled channels…
Acoustic excitation of superharmonic capillary waves on a meniscus in a planar micro-geometry
Jie Xu, Daniel Attinger
The effects of ultrasound on the dynamics of an air-water meniscus in a planar micro-geometry are investigated experimentally. The sonicated meniscus exhibits harmonic traveling wa…
