Slippery Liquid-Infused Porous Surfaces and Droplet Transportation by Surface Acoustic Waves

“…Recently, there has been increased interest in surface acoustic wave (SAW) based microfluidics (often called acoustofluidics) and biosensors due to their promising applications in the fields of lab-on-a-chip and point of care diagnosis [13][14][15][16][17][18]. For these applications, it is essential to develop strategies for reliable and efficient microfluidic functions and manipulation of particles and bio-molecules in the liquid, such as in a droplet-digital microfluidics [19][20][21].…”

Vertical jetting induced by shear horizontal leaky surface acoustic wave on 36° Y-X LiTaO3

“…1 SAW based sensors and microfluidics have recently been intensively 3 reported for a variety of applications in biological, chemical, and medical engineering. [2][3][4][5] So far, Rayleigh SAWs are the most commonly used wave mode in SAW based microfluidics, which are composed of longitudinal and vertically polarized displacement components, thus they are strongly coupled into the liquid media located on their propagation paths. Therefore, they have been extensively applied to generate microfluidic functions, including mixing, pumping, ejection, nebulization and jetting.…”

Study on the growth of Al-doped ZnO thin films with (112̄0) and (0002) preferential orientations and their thermoelectric characteristics

“…19 This is why so many research group focused on the investigation on the growth of high quality ZnO thin lms for thermoelectric applications. ZnO thin lm, a versatile multifunctional material, [20][21][22] which has been widely used in solar cells, 23 surface acoustic waves, [24][25][26][27] dilute magnetic semiconductors, 28 resistive memory, 29 etc. Generally, ZnO is known to readily exhibit (0002)-preferred with the c-axis perpendicular to the substrate due to the lower surface free energy for the (0002) plane on single-crystalline substrates and even on amorphous substrates such as glass, and polymer substrate 18,30 _.…”
