Published: · Updated:
Cornell team develops an ultrasound-directed microbubble chip. The Cornell researchers’ chip forms hydrogen microbubbles at electrodes within a three-millimeter area; ultrasound-driven oscillations then direct fluid flow.
The team programmed bubble size, number and position in real time, and reported the study in Science Advances. Robot circuits and drug delivery are possible future applications; the research does not demonstrate a clinical treatment or ready-to-use robotic system.
