Ultra-high frequency vortex-based tweezers for microparticles manipulation with high spatial selectivity and nanoNewton forces

Résumé

Acoustical tweezers based on focused acoustical vortices open some tremendous perspectives for the in vitro and in vivo remote manipulation of millimetric down to micrometric objects, with com- bined selectivity and applied forces out of reach with any other contactless manipulation technique. Yet, the synthesis of ultra-high frequency acoustical vortices to manipulate precisely micrometric objects remains a major challenge. In this paper, the synthesis of a 250 MHz acoustical vortex is achieved with an active holographic source based on spiraling interdigitated transducers. It is shown that this ultra-high frequency vortex enables to trap and position individual particles in a standard microscopy environment with high spatial selectivity and nanoNewton forces. This work opens perspectives to explore acoustic force spectroscopy in some force ranges that were not accessible before.
