Creating monodispersed droplets with electrowetting-on-dielectric step emulsification

Monodisperse droplets are important in drug screening, and cell-based and biochemical research. However, conventional methods for creating droplets, such as co-flow, T-junction and flow-focusing, have poor monodispersity because of fluctuations in the flow rate. Because step emulsification is based...
