- Lollipops: sweetness in the micro-world (Best Image Award: Thomas Mortelmans). Darkfield micrograph of pillars in a previously loaded capillary microfluidic device. The diameter of a single pillar (circle) is 20 µm. The pillars are connected with the drying lines of the fluid. The different colors stem from small height differences in the fluidic interface.
