Analytical Chemistry, 2015 In the summer of 2009, Daniel Chiu’s prescient review in Analytical Chemistry described droplet microfluidics, an emerging concept and malleable analytical tool.1 The article primarily discussed the potential of single droplets to aid in the study of immensely complex systems, such as single cells and organelles. But droplets, by way of miniaturization

Manipulation of droplets and bubbles for thermal applications
Droplet, 2022 Liquid–vapor phase change including evaporation, boiling, and condensation is a ubiquitous process found in power generation, desalination, thermal management, building heating and cooling, and additive manufacturing. The dynamics of droplets and bubbles

Electrification of water: From basics to applications
Droplet, 2022 As the most common but indispensable matter to humankind, water usually stays in a macroscopically electric neutral state. Due to its inherent molecular polarity, however, water can be easily electrified, which builds a connection between water and ...

Coarsening‐induced disappearing droplets contribute to condensation
Droplet, 2022 Condensation heat transfer is widely used in water and energy systems. Despite being extensively studied, since 1973, the models for dropwise condensation have strongly relied on the droplet size distribution.
