Recent advances in the development of lab-on-a-chip devices have been rapid and broad ranging. In general however these devices, while containing micro- or even nano-scale components, rely heavily on macroscale infrastructure (e.g. microscopes, chip readers and power sources) to perform much of the actual product detection and subsequent analysis.

Optofluidics is broadly defined as the fusion of optics and microfluidics. The term optofluidics was coined less than a decade ago. Yet, the term and the concept it encapsulates have pervaded through a significant fraction of the miniature system research community. Optofluidic research continues to grow in unanticipated directions.

Janus liquid marbles: Fabrication techniques, recent developments, and applications
Liquid marbles (LMs) are nonsticky droplets stabilized by hydrophobic solid particles that are adsorbed at the liquid–air interface. LMs are emerging as a potential platform in digital microfluidics, sensing applications, storage unit, biological ...

Birefringent optofluidic gratings
A set of parallel microfluidic channels behaving as a diffraction grating operating in the Raman-Nath regime has been fabricated and studied. The diffraction efficiency of such structure can be tuned by selecting a liquid with a particular refractive index and/or optical anisotropy.

Static and Dynamic Optical Analysis of Micro Wrinkle Formation on a Liquid Surface
A spatially periodic voltage was used to create a dielectrophoresis induced periodic micro wrinkle deformation on the surface of a liquid film. Optical Coherence Tomography provided the equilibrium wrinkle profile at submicron accuracy.
