Contribution to liquid lens technology

Maziar Ahmadi Zeidabadi

Abstract: The interest on microfluidic systems based on electrowetting-on-dielectric (EWOD) and the miniaturization of such integrated devices, has increased significantly mainly due to the advent of mass market applications such as lab-on-chip, liquid lenses and reflective displays. The main objective of this work focuses on the scientific and technological challenges that the fabrication and optimization of liquid lens faces. Those are mainly related to the materials used and their associated fabrication techniques, i… Show more

“…He explained this observation by relating the principle of electrocapillarity to the capacitance of the electrical double layer (EDL) formed at the metal−electrolyte interface. 17 The term "electrowetting" was first used in 1980 in the context of designing electrowetting displays. 18 Subsequently, Berge 19 T h i s c o n t e n t i s introduced the concept of electrowetting on dielectric (EWOD), in which a thin dielectric layer is sandwiched between a conducting droplet and the bottom electrode in order to eliminate electrolysis, as well as to ensure reasonably low electric fields for manipulating droplet wetting.…”
