Abstract
A jetting device configured to jet one or more droplets of a viscous medium through the outlet of a nozzle includes an energy output device. The energy output device is configured to direct a quantum of energy into at least a portion of the volume of the viscous medium jetted through the outlet to control a breaking of the droplet from the nozzle. The energy output device may include an acoustic transducer or a piezoelectric material or a laser emitter or a heater.
