Robust distance control for stable acoustic levitation

2026/04/15

Our latest publication demonstrates how the transducer–reflector distance in single-transducer acoustic levitators can be regulated robustly for reliable long-term operation.

The paper “Robust Transducer–Reflector Distance Control in Acoustic Levitation” has been published in the IEEE Open Journal of Ultrasonics, Ferroelectrics, and Frequency Control.
