Abstract
Acoustic trapping is increasingly recognized as an effective and gentle non-contact method for manipulating cells and particles within microfluidic systems, which is crucial for advancing research in drug development and medical treatments. A critical factor in the successful assembly of an acoustic trapping system is the design of the acoustic resonator, which must ensure the alignment of the resonance frequency between the piezoelectric element and the fluid-filled cavities. This paper focuses on characterizing piezo electrical damping effects essential for optimizing and advancing the acoustophoretic microsystem.
