摘要
It is difficult to immobilize a single capsule with liquid crystalline shell (LC capsule) for observation. Referring to the microwells generally used for observation of living cells, we fabricated tailor-made microwell using a three-dimensional (3D) printer to match the size of the fabricated LC capsules. We found it works well as the container for LC capsules. We demonstrate the observation of the lasing of the immobilized LC capsule.
