报告题目(英文)：Microcapsule: Design, Fabrication, and Applications

报告内容简介(英文)：：Microcapsule is a core-shell structured material, it contains a spherical core surrounded by a solid shell. This unique structure makes microcapsules ideal carriers to encapsulate a variety of cargoes, from small molecules to biological species such as cells, and to protect these cargoes during storage or handling. In this talk, I will briefly introduce how to fabricate microcapsules using droplet microfluidic technology. Then I will discuss the principle of designing microcapsules for specific application. At last, I will provide examples to show diverse applications of microcapsules, including microcapsules based controlled release systems, implantable biosensors, long-lasting perfume, and detection of microcracks. I will explain the functional mechanism of microcapsules for each application and show the interesting results.
