摘要
This review reports the progress on the recent development of droplet micromixers. Passive droplet micromixers and active droplet micromixers are studied, respectively. Design, simulation, fabrication and application of a variety of droplet micromixers are expounded and analysed. This paper will provide a valuable reference to designers who research droplet micromixers for various applications.
