Microchannels with Self-Pumping Walls [PDF]

open access: yesACS Nano, 2020
When asymmetric Janus micromotors are immobilized on a surface, they act as chemically powered micropumps, turning chemical energy from the fluid into a bulk flow. However, such pumps have previously produced only localized recirculating flows, which cannot be used to pump fluid in one direction. Here, we demonstrate that an array of three-dimensional,

Unleashing the Power of Machine Learning in Nanomedicine Formulation Development

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A random forest machine learning model is able to make predictions on nanoparticle attributes of different nanomedicines (i.e. lipid nanoparticles, liposomes, or PLGA nanoparticles) based on microfluidic formulation parameters. Machine learning models are based on a database of nanoparticle formulations, and models are able to generate unique solutions

Microchannel spatial light modulator [PDF]

open access: yesOptics Letters, 1978
A sensitive, high-speed, optically addressed spatial light modulator is being developed for real-time optical dataprocessing applications involving low-level-control light signals. This device is expected to have a sensitivity of better than 10(-3) microJ/cm(2), a framing rate of about 1 kHz, and a spatial resolution of approximately 20 line pairs/mm ...
