Droplet microfluidics generates and manipulates discrete droplets through immiscible
multiphase flows inside microchannels. Due to its remarkable advantages, droplet …

Microfabricated integrated circuits revolutionized computation by vastly reducing the space,
labor, and time required for calculations. Microfluidic systems hold similar promise for the …

Fundamental and applied research in chemistry and biology benefits from opportunities
provided by droplet‐based microfluidic systems. These systems enable the miniaturization …

ZnO is presently experiencing a research boom with more than 2000 ZnO‐related
publications in 2005. This phenomenon is triggered, for example, by hope to use ZnO as a …

Colloidal particles may be considered as building blocks for materials, just like atoms are the
bricks of molecules, macromolecules, and crystals. Periodic arrays of colloids (colloidal …

The area of micro total analysis systems (μTAS), also called “lab on a chip” or miniaturized
analysis systems, is growing rapidly. This paper represents an update of the earlier reviews …

A microfluidic device having both hydrophobic and hydrophilic components is exploited for
production of multiple-phase emulsions. For producing water-in-oil-in-water (W/O/W) …

This review is written to fulfill the need of a comprehensive guide for the manufacture of
porous polymer particles. The synthesis section discusses and for the first time compares …

Non-spherical nanostructures derived from soft matter and with uniform size—that is,
monodisperse materials—are of particular utility and interest, but are very rare outside the …

The controlled synthesis of micrometer‐sized polymeric particles bearing features such as
nonspherical shapes and spatially segregated chemical properties is becoming increasingly …
