Original Abstract
We report on a microfluidic system formed by 200 nl water droplets, encapsulated by a 600 nl mineral oil placed on a hydrophobically coated glass microscope cover slip. The micromachined heater underneath the glass was able to heat up the sample at a heating rate of 650 C/s, heating the water sample up to 200 C in less than 2 s. The sample/glass and the sample/oil interface did not have nucleation centers, showing that the sample reached a superheated stage without the necessity of being pressurized to suppress boiling. This method can be utilized for various applications currently being conducted in autoclaves.
