    Abstract: A microfluidic system comprising a plurality of photochemical reaction stages, the microfluidic system comprising a computational processor, a plurality of electrically-controllable photochemical reaction stages, and a series of controllable interconnections for connecting the photochemical reaction stages. In an implementation, the computational processor controls the electrically-controllable photochemical and other chemical reaction stages together with controllable interconnections so as to implement multi-step chemical processes. The microfluidic system can be configured to selectively drive a plurality of photochemical reactions within a mixture of chemical compounds via controlled emission of light of a plurality of wavelengths. The microfluidic system can be configured to comprise various interconnections and combinations of parallel and series chemical reaction stages, and can include a multichannel microfluidic chemical transfer bus. The microfluidic system can be configured to handle and process liquid, gasses, solids, and mixtures of these, and can used to implement anion relay chemistry, combinational chemistry, and synthon-based synthesis.

    Abstract: This present invention provides devices for the parallelization of the formation of droplets in a multiple droplet generator integrating two or more parallel flow-focusing devices (FFDs) with either identical, or different, geometries. In the parallel identical FFDs, emulsification generates droplets with a narrow (below 4%) polydispersity despite weak coupling between the identical flow-focusing devices. Formation of droplets in the integrated droplet generator comprising FFDs with different dimensions of the microchannels occurs with strong coupling between the FFDs and produces droplets with varying sizes and size distributions. For such devices the regime in which emulsification produces droplets with varying dimensions and a narrow size distribution have been identified. The results of this work can be used in scaling up the production of droplets and in the simultaneous production of droplets and particles with different dimensions.
