Fast photoswitching of wetting properties is important for the development of
micro/nanofluidic systems and lab-on-a-chip devices. Here, we show how structuring the …

Bisphenol A (BPA) is a commonly synthetic chemical mainly used in producing plastic items.
It is an endocrine-disrupting compound that causes irreversible health and environmental …

We studied the selective deposition of a Newtonian liquid on the hydrophilic domains of
chemically patterned substrates. We present experiments and numerical simulations of the …

We use Monte Carlo simulations to study AB copolymer-grafted nanoparticles to elucidate
the effect of blockiness (length of contiguous blocks of like-monomers) in the grafted …

Micro-patterned surfaces with alternate hydrophilic and hydrophobic rectangular areas
effectively confine water droplets down to attolitre volumes. The contact angle, volume, and …

A heterodyne interference lithography method using two slightly different wavelengths for
one-step multi-scale fabrication of micro/nano hybrid structures is presented. This method …

We present a novel laser-induced surface treatment process to rapidly control the spatial
wettabilities of various functional solutions with submicron to micron resolutions. Ultrathin …

Electrochemical methods such as amperometry and impedance spectroscopy provide the
feasibility of label-free immunoassay. However, the performance of electrochemical …

In a microarray biosensor, the surface characteristic for reducing background nonspecific
binding is a critical aspect for achieving the high sensitivity and accurate detection. In this …
