Non-contact Evanescent Acoustic Tweezers Can Manipulate Cell and Bacterial Samples
CEA-Leti has developed a new acousto-microfluidic technology for manipulating micro- and nanoscale samples using evanescent sound waves. Described in a paper published in the September issue of Nature (Comm. Phys), the technique is envisioned to replace existing technology, which uses high-frequency propagative surface acoustic waves (leaky SAW) to move microscopic samples on complex substrates. …
