Surface acoustic wave (SAW) being a nanometer order amplitude electroelastic waves that propagate along the surface of a piezoelectric substrate, induces megahertz order vibrations to facilitate fluid and particles manipulation at a much finer scale that is commensurate with microfluidic devices. It...
