Surface acoustic waves as an energy source for drop scale synthetic chemistry

Lab Chip. 2009 Mar 21;9(6):754-5. doi: 10.1039/b819217k. Epub 2009 Feb 16.

Abstract

A new modality for chemical synthesis on a drop scale which employs a piezoelectric chip as the reactor and surface acoustic waves (SAWs) as the source of energy (and consequent heating) is described.
