Abstract
We present a novel method of fluidic transport on the open surface of a chemically
patterned substrate using thermocapillary actuation. Our experimental and numerical
studies provide the desired correlations between the microstream flow rate and tunable
parameters like the liquid sample volume, microstream width, and magnitude of the
applied thermal gradient
