Abstract Conductive elastic composites have been used widely in soft electronics and robotics. These are typically a mixture of conductive fillers within elastomeric substrates. They can sense strain via changes resistance resulting from separation the during elongation. Thus, most exhibit negative piezoconductive effect, i.e. conductivity decreases under tensile strain. This property is undesirable for stretchable conductors since such may become less deformation. Here, we report liquid...
Abstract Functional nanoparticles comprised of liquid metals, such as eutectic gallium indium (EGaIn) and Galinstan, present exciting opportunities in the fields flexible electronics, sensors, catalysts, drug delivery systems. Methods used currently for producing metal have significant disadvantages they rely on both bulky expensive high‐power sonication probe systems, also generally require use small molecules bearing thiol groups to stabilize nanoparticles. Herein, an innovative...
The upgraded version of intelligent image-activated cell sorting (iIACS) has enabled higher-throughput and more sensitive image-based single live cells from heterogeneous populations.
Abstract Functional liquid metal nanoparticles (NPs), produced from eutectic alloys of gallium, promise new horizons in the fields sensors, microfluidics, flexible electronics, catalysis, and biomedicine. Here, development a vapor cavity generating ultrasonic platform for nebulizing within aqueous media one‐step production stable functional NPs is shown. The size distribution fully characterized it demonstrated that various macro small molecules can also be grafted onto these during...
We proposed and developed a novel viscoelastic ferrofluid, demonstrated its superior advantages for continuous sheathless separation of nonmagnetic particles.
Abstract Microfluidic systems enable rapid diagnosis of diseases, biological analysis, drug screening, and high‐precision materials synthesis. In spite these remarkable abilities, conventional microfluidic are microfabricated monolithically on a single platform their operations rely bulky expensive external equipment. This restricts applications outside research laboratories prevents development assembly truly versatile complex systems. Here, novel magnetorheological elastomer (MRE)...
Food allergies can greatly harm people's health, and therefore detecting allergens in foods is extremely important. By integrating loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) with a microfluidic chip, we have developed method for the allergen genes of peanut (Arachis hypogaea), sesame (Sesamum indicum), soybean (Glycine max) using colorimetric suitable naked eye, known as LAMP chip. In presence peanut, sesame, or samples, corresponding reaction well chip will appear pink, otherwise remain...
Focusing and separation of particles such as cells at high throughput is extremely attractive for biomedical applications. Particle manipulation based on inertial effects requires a flow speed thus well-suited to high-throughput Recently, focusing using curvilinear microchannels has been attracting great amount interest because the linear structure parallelization, small device footprint, superior particle-focusing performance, easy implementation particle separation. However, curvature...

Imaging flow cytometry (IFC) has become a powerful tool for diverse biomedical applications by virtue of its ability to image single cells in high-throughput manner. However, there remains challenge posed the fundamental trade-off between throughput, sensitivity, and spatial resolution. Here we present deep-learning-enhanced imaging (dIFC) that circumvents this implementing an restoration algorithm on virtual-freezing fluorescence (VIFFI) platform, enabling higher throughput without...

In this paper, 3D particle focusing in a straight channel with asymmetrical expansion-contraction cavity arrays (ECCA channel) is achieved by exploiting the dean-flow-coupled elasto-inertial effects. First, mechanism of both Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids was introduced. Then demonstrated experimentally using three different sized particles (3.2 μm, 4.8 13 μm), respectively. Also, effects dean flow (or secondary flow) induced were highlighted comparing distributions single rectangular...
