Exploiting Device Deformability for Fluid and Particle Manipulation

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Deformable devices enable fluid and particle manipulation modes that are inaccessible to rigid platforms. This review examines soft materials and architectures that translate controlled deformation into microscale fluid operations such as pumping, valving, mixing, and particle handling.

Geometric effects on mixing performance in a novel passive micromixer with trapezoidal-zigzag channels [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
A novel passive micromixer, called a trapezoidal-zigzag micromixer (TZM), is reported. A TZM is composed of trapezoidal channels in a zigzag and split–recombine arrangement that enables multiple mixing mechanisms, including splitting–recombining ...

Machine Learning‐Driven Capillary Microfluidic Design Automation for Programmable Gradient Generation and Antimicrobial Testing

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
TCG‐CMDA, a machine learning‐guided capillary microfluidic design automation platform, enables automated design of tree‐shaped concentration gradient generators for programmable mixing of two agents. The pump‐free chip supports synchronized passive flow and programmable gradient formation, providing a practical framework for decentralized point‐of‐care

Printing to Fight Antimicrobial Resistance Through Nano/Microstructured Platforms

open access: yesThe Chemical Record, EarlyView.
Additive manufacturing enables the rational design of structured antimicrobial platforms across multiple length scales, from nanofibrous scaffolds and droplet microreactors to 3D and 4D printed constructs. By engineering confinement, interfacial chemistry, and stimuli‐responsive release, these systems exert localized action through complementary ...
