Repeatable Acoustic Vaporization of Coated Perfluorocarbon Bubbles for Micro-Actuation Inspired by <i>Polypodium aureum</i>
<i>Polypodium aureum</i>, a fern, possesses a specialized spore-releasing mechanism like a catapult induced by the quick expansion of vaporized bubbles. This study introduces lipid-coated perfluorocarbon droplets to enable repeatable vaporization–condensation cycles, inspired by the repe...
