Interaction of red blood cells with arrays of laser-induced cavitation bubbles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We use a spatial light modulator (SLM) to simultaneously create several laser-induced cavitation bubbles. The geometry of the bubble array results in different flow patterns during the expansion and collapse of the bubbles.
