We present a new experimental method for searching for free fractional charge in bulk matter; this new method derives from the traditional Millikan liquid drop method but allows the use of much larger drops, 20–100 μm in diameter, compared to the traditional method that uses drops less than 15 μm in diameter. These larger drops provide the substantial advantage that it is then much easier to consistently generate drops containing liquid suspensions of powdered meteorites and other special minerals. These materials are of great importance in bulk searches for fractional charge particles that may have been produced in the early universe. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.
