Abstract:
Devices, systems, and their methods of use, for generating droplets are provided. One or more geometric parameters of a microfluidic channel can be selected to generate droplets of a desired and predictable droplet size.

Claim (Index 19):
A device for producing droplets of a first liquid in a second liquid, the device comprising:\n a) two first channels having a first depth, a first width, a first proximal end, and a first distal end; b) two second channels having a second depth, a second width, a second proximal end, and a second distal end, wherein the two second channels intersect the two first channels between the first proximal and first distal ends; and c) two droplet formation regions, wherein the droplet formation regions are configured to allow the first liquid to expand in at least one dimension and have at least one inlet and at least one outlet; wherein the two first channels and the two droplet formation regions are configured to produce droplets of the first liquid in the second liquid.
