SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ACOUSTIC FOCUSING HARDWARE AND IMPLEMENTATIONS

摘要

The invention relates to an apparatus that hydrodynamically and acoustically focuses particles in a particle stream. The apparatus comprises a flow chamber and an outer confine of said flow chamber for flowing a hydrodynamic fluid therethrough. A central core of said flow chamber is for flowing the particle sample stream therethrough. At least one transducer is coupled to said chamber producing acoustic radiation pressure.
