Chemical Characteristics of Single Laser-Manipulated Microparticles in Solution

Abstract

A laser manipulation technique, combined with microspectroscopic and microelectrochemical methods, has been applied to elucidate mechanistic features of chemical reactions across a single microdroplet/water interface. A potential means of the laser-manipulated method has been demonstrated for direct observations and analyses of interfacial mass transfer andelectron transfer processes of individual microdroplets.
