A device for fabricating micro articles, which includes a first electrode plate, a second electrode plate, and a spacing component. The first electrode plate has a forming electrode, where the forming electrode correspondingly matches a cross-section of the micro article. The spacing component is disposed in between the first electrode plate and the second electrode plate, with the thickness corresponds to the thickness of the micro article. Thereby, the device is able to store the solidifiable liquid therein, where the solidifiable liquid is controlled for shaping according to the forming electrode. After the solidifiable liquid has shaped and solidified, the finished product of the micro article is attained. The present disclosure also provides a method for fabricating micro articles.

A microfluidic system for creating encapsulated droplets whose shells can be further removed comprises: two electrode plates and a spacing structure disposed between the two electrode plates. One of the electrode plates has three reservoir electrodes and a plurality of channel electrodes. The three electrodes are respectively used for accommodating a shell liquid, a core liquid, and a removing liquid which is able to remove the shell liquid. The channel electrodes are used for communicating droplets among the three reservoir electrodes. Via these arrangements, the microfluidic system can create a quantitative shell droplet and a quantitative core droplet, and then merge the shell and core droplets to form an encapsulated droplet. Moreover, the shell of the encapsulated droplet can be removed by mixing it with the removing liquid. This invention is further provided with a method for creating an encapsulated droplet with a removable shell.

A virtual channel platform is disclosed. Said virtual channel platform comprises two spaced electrode plates, which can provide an electric field, and a voltage source electrically connected to the two electrode plates. Said plates define a virtual reservoir and a virtual channel. When the voltage source provides a voltage between the electrode plates, the electric field generates a force to drive a driven fluid streaming from the virtual reservoir to the virtual channel, allowing the virtual channel to be filled with the driven fluid fully.
