Photoreactive coating for high-contrast spatial patterning of microfluidic device wettability.
For many applications in microfluidics, the wettability of the devices must be spatially controlled. We introduce a photoreactive sol-gel coating that enables high-contrast spatial patterning of microfluidic device wettability.
