Acoustic Droplet Vaporization in Biology and Medicine

Figure 2

Plot of the radius of an expanding bubble as a function of time and acoustic amplitude. A 125 nm radius droplet of perfluorohexane in water was subjected to 500 kHz pressure waves with amplitudes of 111, 113, and 115 kPa. The temperature was 25°C, and the interfacial tension was 3.5 mN/m. The plot was adapted from [8].
