Inkjet printing is the most widespread technological application of microfluidics. It is
characterized by its high drop productivity, small volumes, and extreme reproducibility. This …

Droplets abound in nature and technology. In general, they are multicomponent, and, when
out of equilibrium, have gradients in concentration, implying flow and mass transport …

Biological macromolecules can condense into liquid domains. In cells, these condensates
form membraneless organelles that can organize chemical reactions. However, little is …

Polyamide (PA) thin-film composite (TFC) membranes are extensively used in water
purification but suffer from chronic biofouling, which has spurred extensive research on the …

Interfacial polymerization (IP) provides a versatile platform for fabricating defect-free
functional nanofilms for various applications, including molecular separation, energy …

Manufacturing a multilayer evaporator with a delicate structure and removing salt
accumulation during prolonged operation are challenges in seawater desalination. A …

Stable interfaces between immiscible solvents are crucial for chemical synthesis and
assembly, but interfaces between miscible solvents have been less explored. Here the …

Collective cell migration is a highly complex process in which groups of cells move together.
A fundamental question is how cell ensembles can migrate efficiently. In some cases, the …

An extremely rapid process for self‐assembling well‐ordered, nano, and microparticle
monolayers via a novel aerosolized method is presented. The novel technique can reach …

A microbubble nucleated due to the absorption of a tightly focused laser at the interface of a
liquid–solid substrate enables directed and irreversible self-assembly of mesoscopic …
