The spatial control of particles in microfluidic systems using surface acoustic waves

Control over particle positioning is of particular importance in microfluidic systems. Acoustic techniques offer a low- power, minimally invasive method of achieving such control. This thesis discusses such control using surface acoustic waves. Mathematical models are first developed to describe the...
