A closed-form solution for streaming and Lagrangian transport in a deforming circular cavity
Zijian Liu, Julian Olszewski, Yang Lin +3
Streaming from a deforming cavity wall serves micromixing, pumping and particle handling. We solve it in closed form in a two-dimensional circular cavity, for any azimuthal wall mo…
On the Quantification of Mixing in Microfluidics
Ali Hashmi, Jie Xu
Methods for quantifying mixing in microfluidics have varied largely in the past, and various indices have been employed to represent the extent of mixing. Mixing between two or mor…
Entry effects of droplet in a micro confinement: implications for deformation-based CTC microfiltration
Zhifeng Zhang, Xiaolin Chen, Jie Xu
Deformation based circulating tumor cell (CTC) microchips are a representative diagnostic device for early cancer detection. This type of device usually involves a process of CTC t…
Deformability-based circulating tumor cell separation with conical-shaped microfilters: concept, optimization and design criteria
Mohammad Aghaamoo, Zhifeng Zhang, Xiaolin Chen +1
The ability of detecting and separating CTCs can play a key role in early cancer detection and treatment. In recent years, there has been growing interest in using deformability-ba…
Simple graphene chemiresistors as pH sensors: fabrication and characterization
Nan Lei, Pengfei Li, Wei Xue +1
We report the fabrication and characterization of a simple gate-free graphene device as a pH sensor. The graphene sheets are made by mechanical exfoliation. Platinum contact electr…
Liquid marbles as thermally robust droplets: coating-assisted Leidenfrost-like effect
Cedric Aberle, Mark Lewis, Gan Yu +2
The Leidenfrost effect-prolonged evaporation of droplets on a superheated surface-happens only when the surface temperature is above a certain transitional value. Here, we show tha…
