Development of Microwave/Droplet-Microfluidics Integrated Heating and Sensing Platforms for Biomedical and Pharmaceutical Lab-on-a-Chip Applications

Yesiloz, Gurkan (University of Waterloo, 2017-05-24)

Interest in Lab-on-a-chip and droplet-based microfluidics has grown recently because of their promise to facilitate a broad range of scientific research and biological/chemical processes such as cell analysis, DNA ...
Effective Thermo-Capillary Mixing in Droplet Microfluidics Integrated with a Microwave Heater

Yesiloz, Gurkan; Boybay, Muhammed S.; Ren, Carolyn L. (American Chemical Society (ACS), 2017-02-07)

In this study, we present a microwave-based microfluidic mixer that allows rapid mixing within individual droplets efficiently. The designed microwave mixer is a coplanar design with a small footprint, which is fabricated ...
Microwave temperature measurement in microfluidic devices

Wong, David; Yesiloz, Gurkan; Boybay, Muhammed S.; Ren, Carolyn L. (Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC), 2016-05-10)

In spite of various existing thermometry methods for microfluidic applications, it remains challenging to measure the temperature of individual droplets in segmented flow since fast moving droplets do not allow sufficient ...
