abstract = "This paper report the first experimental findings of the unique focusing and interference phenomena in the optofluidic waveguide formed by miscible laminar flows, which cannot be seen in solid waveguides. In the optofluidic waveguide, diffusion creates refractive index gradients in both transverse and longitudinal directions. This bi-directional gradient-index profile is an exceptional trait of optofluidic waveguide and the key to the distinct focusing and interference effects. We believe that this work brings fresh insight into the uniqueness of optofluidic waveguide and will open new doors in photocatalytic green energy and pollution reduction for chemistry and life sciences.",
