5% and less than 6.5% when using [emim][BF4 ] or [bmim][BF4 ], respectively, either in run-to-run or day-to-day experiments. The determination of the extent of the EOF is not possible with the commonly used EOF markers, due to interaction with the ionic-liquid constituents. The interaction of the ionic liquids with the proteins influences the…[Read more]

Moreover, if placing our meta-grating on a flexible/stretchable substrate (such as polydimethylsiloxane), the outgoing angle can be effectively adjusted by tuning the period or density of meta-grating arrays. Such meta-grating architectures can be potentially manufactured by existing photolithography and nanoimprint techniques, and can easily find…[Read more]
