We investigate the manipulation of 5 nm diamond nanoparticles in a user-defined pattern on a substrate using the acoustic radiation force associated with a bulk acoustic standing wave. Both concentric and rectangular patterns are studied and the experimental results are compared with theoretical predictions. The effect of drag force acting on a nanoparticle is evaluated and limits for particle speed and particle size that can be moved by acoustic radiation force are determined. We found good agreement between our experimental results and existing theoretical models and demonstrate that nanosized particles can be manipulated effectively by means of bulk wave acoustic radiation force.
