The first microfluidic method for accurately depositing monodisperse single MOF crystals is presented, enabling unprecedented high‐throughput, yet flexible single‐crystal printing. Individual droplets of MOF precursor solutions are actuated over a matrix of hydrophilic‐in‐hydrophobic micropatterns for the controlled generation of femtoliter droplets. As such, thousands of monodisperse single MOF crystals are printed per second in a desired pattern, without the use of impractically expensive equipment.
