Converting Vertical Vibration of Anisotropic Ratchet Conveyors into Horizontal Droplet Motion

An anisotropic ratchet conveyor is an asymmetric, periodic, micropatterned surface that propels droplets when vibrated with a sinusoidal signal at certain frequencies and amplitudes. For each input frequency, there is a threshold amplitude beyond which the droplet starts to move. In this paper, we s...
