Hydrodynamic particle focusing enhanced by femtosecond laser deep grooving at low Reynolds numbers

Abstract Microfluidic focusing of particles (both synthetic and biological), which enables precise control over the positions of particles in a tightly focused stream, is a prerequisite step for the downstream processing, such as detection, trapping and separation. In this study, we propose a novel...
