Perovskite materials are promising candidates for the implementation of electrically pumped lasers considering the enhanced performance of perovskite-based light-emitting diodes. Nonetheless, current methods of fabricating perovskite optical microcavities require complex patterning technologies to build suitable resonant cavities for perovskite laser emission, burdening the device structure design. To address this issue, we applied inkjet printing, a maskless patterning technique, to directly create spontaneous formations of polycrystalline perovskite microcavity arrays to explore their laser-emitting action. The substrate surface tension was tuned to modulate the perovskite crystallization process in combination with optimization of printing ink recipes. As a result, polycrystalline perovskite microcavity arrays were achieved, contributing to the laser emission at 528 nm with a lasing threshold of 1.37 mJ/cm2, while simultaneously achieving high-definition patterning of flexible display. These results clearly illustrate the efficiency of inkjet printing technology in the preparation of polycrystalline perovskite optical microcavities and promote the development of flexible laser arrayed displays, providing a facile process toward the realization of perovskite-cavity laser devices.

In this work, we present a simple and equipment-free system for discretizing samples into tens of thousands of discrete volumes in tens of seconds. Unlike conventional sample discretization systems that require bulky syringe pumps, pressure controllers, or vacuum equipment, our system requires only a sheet of water-soluble film, a hand-operated syringe, and a microfluidic device containing a high-density microchamber array. In this system, the water-soluble film seals the device inlet to form a closed channel–chamber system, while the syringe is used to create a vacuum in the closed system. Benefitting from the high negative pressure created by syringe-vacuum and the dissolution-triggered gating mechanism of the sealing water-soluble film, the aqueous sample loaded into the device inlet can be rapidly partitioned into tens of thousands of isolated chambers without the need for any expensive pumping systems. We demonstrated the utility of this system by exploiting it for digital PCR. We believe that this simple discretization system will find broad applications, such as in digital bioassays, single-cell analysis, and point-of-care diagnostics.
