Abstract

Here we present a rapid and inexpensive method to spatially pattern wettability in microfluidic devices for continuous generation of monodisperse double emulsion (DE) droplets. This is achieved by applying corona discharge to a select zone of the microchannel surface, which is further confined by a purpose-designed corona resistance microchannel, in single polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) microfluidic devices.
