Light guided system delivers uniform nanoliter droplets on chip

Tokyo, Japan (SPX) Feb 02, 2026
Precise control of very small liquid volumes is essential for many modern biochemical analyses, but reliably dispensing droplets on the nanoliter scale remains a technical challenge on microfluidic platforms. Researchers have now demonstrated a light controlled droplet dispensing strategy that generates highly uniform, tunable nanoliter droplets on a chip by combining optoelectrowetting with dyn
