Abstract

A droplet/electrospray device and a liquid chromatography-electrospray system are disclosed. The droplet/electrospray device (100) comprises a substrate (102) defining a channel (104) between an entrance orifice (106) on an injection surface (108) and an exit orifice on an ejection surface (112), a nozzle (110) defined by a portion recessed from the ejection surface (112) surrounding the exit orifice, and an electrode (122) for application of an electric potential to the substrate (102) to optimize and generate droplets or an electrospray (62). A plurality of these electrospray devices (100) can be used in the fonn of an array of miniaturized nozzles. The liquid chromatography-electrospray device (160) comprises a separation substrate (162) defining an introduction channel (164) between an entrance orifice and a reservoir (166) and a separation channel (168) between the reservoir (166) and an exit orifice (170), the separation channel (168) being populated with separation posts (174) perpendicular to the fluid flow.
