“…This method has been widely used due to simple and effective control of the deposition but remains limited in biochemical applications because it causes contamination. Other strategies without modifying the composition of the droplet have been introduced, where drying conditions [ 73 , 74 , 75 , 76 , 77 , 78 , 79 , 80 , 81 , 82 ] or geometry [ 83 , 84 , 85 , 86 , 87 , 88 , 89 , 90 , 91 , 92 , 93 , 94 , 95 , 96 , 97 , 98 , 99 , 100 ] can be changed. Recent works have reported the effect of external sources including external vapor [ 101 , 102 , 103 , 104 , 105 , 106 ], magnetic field [ 107 , 108 ], and surface acoustic wave (SAW) [ 52 , 109 ] on the deposit patterns.…”
