Title: | Ultrasonic particle trapping in microfluidic devices using soft lithography | Authors: | Guo, S Zhao, L Zhang, K Lam, KH Lau, ST Zhao, X Wang, Y Chan, HLW Chen, Y Baigl, D |
Issue Date: | 28-May-2008 | Source: | Applied physics letters, 28 May 2008, v. 92, 213901, p. 1-3 | Abstract: | We report on the feasible fabrication of microfluidic devices for noncontact particle trapping. A half-wavelength resonator was constructed using standard soft lithography to generate ultrasonic standing waves through a miniature piezoelectric transducer. Microparticles (400 nm to 10 µm in diameter) flowing through polydimethylsiloxane microchannels were efficiently trapped to levitate in the middle depth of a resonance cavity. Such a device could potentially offer a flexible platform for particle-based assays for a large variety of applications. | Keywords: | Microchannel flow Micromechanical resonators Particle size Piezoelectric transducers Polymers Soft lithography Ultrasonic waves |
