In work that could dramatically boost the capabilities of "lab on a chip" devices, MIT researchers have created a way to use tiny bubbles to mimic the capabilities of a computer. In work that could ...

DENVER — Forget fancy electronics. Plain old bubbles are enough to direct the flow of liquid through networks of microscopic tubes, called microfluidics. Researchers recently demonstrated that bubbles ...

A computer that carries out calculations using tiny bubbles instead of electricity has been developed by US researchers. The “microfluidic” computer performs calculation by squeezing bubbles through ...
