Controllable water surface to underwater transition through electrowetting in a hybrid terrestrial-aquatic microrobot

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
Several animal species demonstrate remarkable locomotive capabilities on land, on water, and under water. A hybrid terrestrial-aquatic robot with similar capabilities requires multimodal locomotive strategies that reconcile the constraints imposed by the

The Effect of the Terminal Functional Groups on Fluoropolymer on Electrowetting Device Performance

open access: yesTechnologies, 2019
Electrowetting on dielectric (EWOD) devices were fabricated using two hydrophobic organic fluoropolymers, comprising CYTOP (a product name) having different chemical structures only at the terminal functional groups.

Apparent Contact Angles on Lubricant-Impregnated Surfaces/SLIPS: From Superhydrophobicity to Electrowetting.

open access: yesLangmuir, 2019
A fundamental limitation of liquids on many surfaces is their contact line pinning. This limitation can be overcome by infusing a nonvolatile and immiscible liquid or lubricant into the texture or roughness created in or applied onto the solid substrate ...

3-D image Crosstalk Reduction by Controlling the Width of the Electrode in a Liquid Lenticular Lens

open access: yesIEEE Photonics Journal, 2018
In this paper, a liquid lenticular lens with correct focal length was designed by controlling the width of the electrode and analyzing the microfluidic phenomena at boundary between oil and salted water in the liquid lenticular lens.

Advanced characterization of electrowetting retroreflectors

open access: yesOptics Express, 2009
Electrowetting retroreflectors use a simple and scalable construction, and incorporate an electrically tunable liquid lenslet. By electrically modulating the lenslet geometry, the reflection is switched between retroreflection and scattering. In this paper, we report new capability and characterization, including higher index liquids and contrast ratio
