a Frame-by-frame micrographs showing the process of droplet synchronization in the constriction channel. b The synchronized droplets are spaced by the oil flow introduced from the T-junction. c Pairs of droplets are in close contact in the expansion chamber and coalesce under the electric field. d Optical micrograph showing merged droplets with uniform size and color distribution. Scale bar: 50 μm
