Abstract

Arrays of chemical oscillators are micropatterned by Wet Stamping. The technique is used to demonstrate that chemical waves can be initiated and controlled in oscillatory systems and that such waves can give rise to phenomena not observed in excitable media. Interoscillator coupling and synchronization, kinetic autofocusing, and twist-symmetry breaking are a consequence of the dependence of the oscillation phase on the local concentrations of reagents and on systems' geometry. Conditions under which a generic oscillatory system would exhibit such behaviors are determined.
