Bouncing microdroplets on hydrophobic surfaces. [PDF]

open access: yesProc Natl Acad Sci U S A
Intuitively, slow droplets stick to a surface and faster droplets splash or bounce. However, recent work suggests that on nonwetting surfaces, whether microdroplets stick or bounce depends only on their size and fluid properties, but not on the incoming velocity.

The power of microdroplet photochemistry

open access: yesChemical Science
Irradiation of the air–solution interface, whether achieved through the spraying of microdroplets into the air or by bubbling air through a solution, accelerates the rate of photochemical reactions by orders of magnitude compared to identical reaction conditions in bulk solutions.

Microdroplet ultrafast reactions speed antibody characterization

open access: yes, 2021
Recently, microdroplet reactions have aroused much interest because the microdroplet provides a unique medium where organic reactions could be accelerated by a factor of 103 or more.

Oxygen‐Tolerant Photo‐Induced Miniaturized Accelerated Atom Transfer Radical Polymerization (OPTIMA‐ATRP) for High‐Throughput Synthesis of Polymer Bioconjugates

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Oxygen‐tolerant photo‐induced miniaturized accelerated atom transfer radical polymerization (OPTIMA‐ATRP) in water was developed for the polymerization of hydrophilic (meth)acrylate monomers under ambient or sub‐ambient (4°C) temperature and atmospheric conditions, without prior degassing, in less than 10 min, at an ultra‐small scale (< 50 µL) in ...

Self-Localized Liquid Crystal Micro-Droplet Arrays on Chemically Patterned Surfaces

open access: yesCrystals, 2021
Liquid crystal (LC) micro-droplet arrays are elegant systems that have a range of applications, such as chemical and biological sensing, due to a sensitivity to changes in surface properties and strong optical activity.

Microdroplet identification and size measurement in sprays with lasing images

open access: yes, 2002
Two-dimensional fluorescence and lasing images of a Rhodamine-6G doped water spray are observed with color photography. The lasing microdroplets are identified by their two reciprocal lasing spots.

Microdroplet Synthesis of Silver Nanoparticles with Controlled Sizes

open access: yesMicromachines, 2019
A method was developed to synthesize silver nanoparticles with controlled size and Localized Surface Plasmon Resonance (LSPR) wavelength. In a microchip, droplets with high monodispersity and stability were produced. Using droplets as microreactors, seed-
