Abstract

Acoustic tweezers are devices that use acoustic radiation forces to counteract gravity and trap and maneuver objects in air, liquids, or gases, without touching them or contaminating the sample. This article will explain what acoustic trapping is, the theory behind it and the calibration techniques used to study the acoustic forces acting on particles trapped in phased array levitators, focusing on the calibration of TinyLev acoustic levitator. The reported methods allows us to calculate the force constants of the trap, giving the opportunity to make use of these tools for several applications, from biomedical to chemico-physical fields.
