Electro-coflow as a route to drop generation

POSTER

Abstract

We couple electric and hydrodynamic forces in glass-based microfluidic devices to generate droplets in steady state. The size of the drops can be larger, comprable and smaller than the tip diameter, which is the smalles geometric feature of the device.
