Acoustofluidics in 3D printed microdevicesAcoustofluidics is the combination of acoustics and microfluidics for fluid and particle manipulation at microscale. With the advancement in 3D printing, fabricating microdevices with low cost 3D printer has become feasible, which facilitates the adoption of microfluidic devices by a broad community. Due to the limitation in channel resolution, many conventional microfluidic methods are not directly available for 3D printed device. By developing simple and efficient acoustofluidic methods for 3D printed devices, we will expand the scope of 3D printed devices for rapid reaction monitoring, efficient sample preparation, and self-contained microfluidic systems.
