(A) Sequential images showing droplets ascend uphill on the platform tilted at 6°. Laser is turned on at ~−2 s. (B) Chronophotograph showing the droplet’s climbing of the vertical wall. (C) Chronophotograph showing a photo-controlled cargo carrier with four droplet wheels carrying a solid cargo. White dashed circle denotes the driving droplet. (D) Chronophotograph showing the lossless manipulation of a 20 mg ml−1 FITC-BSA droplet on the photopyroelectric microfluidics platform, enhancing the maximum concentration of deliverable protein by 4000-fold. (E) Sequential images showing the detection of glycine using the fundamental fluidic operations on the platform. Photo credit: Wei Li, The University of Hong Kong.
