Integrated nanoliter systems (2003, background): “Thus, effort has focused on using two-phase fluid systems, such as water and oil, to generate vesicles that could be used as small but controlled chemical reactor”
Drop on demand in a microfluidic chip (2008, methodology): “Also, the segmented flow technique, defined as the transport of two or more immiscible phases in the form of successive plugs in a microchannel, has been developed: it uses syringe pumps feeding two branches of a Tconnection [5, 11, 12] or two concentric channels [13, 14], as reviewed in [5].”
Microfluidics: Fluid physics at the nanoliter scale (2005, methodology): “Thorsen et al. 2001 demonstrated that microfluidic devices could be used to create controllable droplet emulsions in immiscible fluids, by injecting water into a stream of oil at a T junction Fig.”
Transition from squeezing to dripping in a microfluidic T-shaped junction (2008, background): “Thorsen et al. (2001) took into account that the emerging droplet decreases the cross-section of the channel available for the flow of the continuous fluid.”
