Abstract
The authors present microfluidic logic gates based on two-phase flows at low Reynold’s number. The presence and the absence of a dispersed phase liquid (slug) in a continuous phase liquid represent 1 and 0, respectively. The working principle of these devices is based on the change in hydrodynamic resistance for a channel containing droplets. Logical operations including AND, OR, and NOT are demonstrated, and may pave the way for microfludic system automation and computation.
