Journal ArticleDOI
Patterning Self-Assembled Monolayers: Applications in Materials Science
TL;DR: In this paper, a technique for patterning the formation of self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) using an elastomeric stamp was described, which can routinely produce patterns with dimensions from 1 to 100 lrm.
Journal ArticleDOI
Eutectic Gallium-Indium (EGaIn) : A Liquid Metal Alloy for the Formation of Stable Structures in Microchannels at Room Temperature
Michael D. Dickey,Ryan C. Chiechi,Ryan J. Larsen,Emily A. Weiss,David A. Weitz,George M. Whitesides +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the rheological behavior of the liquid metal eutectic gallium-indium (EGaIn) as it is injected into microfluidic channels to form stable microstructures of liquid metal.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pneumatic Networks for Soft Robotics that Actuate Rapidly

TL;DR: In this article, a pneumatic actuator can bend from a linear to a quasicircular shape in 50 ms when pressurized at Δ P = 345 kPa.
Journal ArticleDOI
Generation of Solution and Surface Gradients Using Microfluidic Systems
Noo Li Jeon,Stephan K. W. Dertinger,Daniel T. Chiu,Insung S. Choi,and Abraham D. Stroock,George M. Whitesides +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe a simple, versatile method of generating gradients in composition in solution or on surfaces using microfluidic systems based on controlled diffusive mixing of species in solutions that are flowing laminarly, at low Reynolds number, inside a network of microchannels.
Journal ArticleDOI
Polymer microstructures formed by moulding in capillaries
TL;DR: In this article, a low-viscosity polymer precursor is placed in contact with the network of channels formed when a substrate and a patterned elastomeric master are placed in intimate contact.
