Abstract

The formation of monodisperse double_x000D_ emulsions, drops inside of drops, has revealed a rich range of configurations not possible without the precise control of microfluidics. Yet-to-date, development_x000D_ of double emulsions with a controlled number of two different inner drops has not emerged. Here we demonstrate exquisite control over the number, size and_x000D_ type of inner drops encapsulated inside a double emulsion. These are fabricated using glass capillary devices implemented with a dual bore injection tube. We_x000D_ will show our latest results and discuss the scientific and technological opportunities made possible by these stable binary configurations.
