Passive Droplet Control in Two-Dimensional Microfluidic Networks

Microfluidic networks for droplet-based microfluidics have been recently introduced with the aim of realizing flexible Lab-on-Chip devices. In this paper, we investigate, for the first time, a two-dimensional network topology, in which biological samples, embodied in so-called payload droplets, are delivered to a specific destination. Two-dimensional networks can be useful in many applications, su...
