Levitation techniques are no longer confined to the laboratory thanks to engineers who have developed an easier way for suspending matter in mid-air by developing a 3-D-printed acoustic levitator.

An electromagnetic device can gently sort cells by levitating them to different heights. It looks like a magic trick: cells at the bottom of a liquid medium begin levitating, then hovering at a ...

Although scientists have been able to levitate specific types of material, a pair of UChicago undergraduate physics students helped take the science to a new level. Third-year Frankie Fung and ...

Researchers showed that using sound waves to levitate droplets of water in midair can improve the detection of harmful heavy metal contaminants such as lead and mercury in water. In a new study, ...

While levitation of certain specific types of material has been achieved earlier, a pair of undergraduate physics students from the University of Chicago have used heat flow to levitate objects. The ...

(Nanowerk News) Levitation techniques are no longer confined to the laboratory thanks to University of Bristol engineers who have developed an easier way for suspending matter in mid-air by developing ...

The average Hackaday reader is likely at least familiar with acoustic levitation — a technique by which carefully arranged ultrasonic transducers can be used to suspend an object in the air ...

A study on the levitation technique titled "High-speed acoustic holography with arbitrary scattering objects" has been published in the journal Science Advances. Researchers from the University ...
