Robust acoustic particle manipulation: a thin-reflector design for moving particles to a surface

Existing ultrasonic manipulation devices capable of pushing particles to a surface ("quarter-wave" devices) have significant potential in sensor applications. A configuration for achieving this that uses the first thickness resonance of a layered structure with both a thin reflector layer...
