(a) Picture of the entire device illustrating the PZT assembled on the glass slide next to the microfluidic chip. (b) Schematic of the microfluidic chip. (c) Enclosed horseshoe structures are located between a series of parallel channels for guiding motile sperms. Also, the main channel is located between the two groups of parallel channels at each end of the chip. (d) Generated microvortices in the vicinity of the horseshoe structures as a result of bubble oscillation. The wall thickness around the enclosed horseshoe structure is 30 μm.
