Optofluidics is an emerging field that aims to synergize optics/photonics and microfluidics for advanced functions. This talk will reveal the key points of optofluidics and then will review some notable applications of optofluidics that have been reported recently. Finally, further chances of optofluidics for micro/nano optics and photonics will be projected.
