Levitation of liquid droplet is one of the most important applications of acoustic levitation, not only for the study of fluid physics, but also for bio/chemical analysis. In this chapter, we review various behaviors of acoustically levitated drops, ranging from evolution of static equilibrium shape, oscillation, to different drop instabilities. We also discuss drop manipulation by using acoustic levitation. At last, we propose several possible future directions to stimulate multi-discipline researches based on the technique.
