Monodispersed microfluidic droplet generation by shear focusing microfluidic device
A microfluidic device designed to generate monodispersed picoliter to femtoliter sized droplet emulsions at controlled rates is presented. This PDMS microfabricated device utilizes the geometry of the channel junctions in addition to the flow rates to control the droplet sizes. An expanding nozzle is used to control the breakup location of the droplet generation process. The droplet breakup occ...
متن کاملPurely elastic instabilities in a microfluidic flow focusing device
In this work, we investigate the behavior of dilute and semidilute polymer solutions flowing in a microfluidic flow focusing device, in which an inlet stream is stretched by two balanced lateral streams. By varying the flow rates in the inlet and lateral channels and their ratio, several types of flow transitions are observed and the resulting velocity fields are analyzed both upstream and down...
متن کاملA microfluidic device for array patterning by perpendicular electrokinetic focusing
This paper describes a microfluidic chip in which two perpendicular laminar-flow streams can be operated to sequentially address the surface of a flowchamber with semi-parallel sample streams. The sample streams can be controlled in position and width by the method of electrokinetic focusing. For this purpose, each of the two streams is sandwiched by two parallel sheath flow streams containing ...
متن کاملNumerical Study of the Controlled Droplet Breakup by Electric Fields inside a Microfluidic Flow-focusing Device
Droplet-based microfluidics has received extensive research interests due to its superior control over the fluid flow. Conventional passive microfluidic flow-focusing devices confront difficulties in controlling droplet sizes in dripping regime especially when the dispersed phase has a large viscosity. External electric fields have been reported as an effective tool to manipulate droplet breaku...
