Achieving Directional Oil Manipulation by Open Inducing Structure for Electrowetting Displays

open access: yesAdvanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
This work introduces an open inducing structure (OIS) fabricated by photoembossing to precisely control oil motion in electrowetting displays (EWDs). The OIS creates local electric field inhomogeneity, guiding directional oil rupture and achieving a 93.8% motion consistency. It significantly lowers the turn‐on voltage and accelerates the response speed,

Shaken not stirred — On internal flow patterns in oscillating sessile drops [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We use numerical (volume of fluid) simulations to study the flow in an oscillating sessile drop immersed in an ambient immiscible fluid. The drop is excited by a sinusoidal variation of the contact angle at variable frequency.

Rewiring Droplet Interface Synapses

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Droplet interface synapses are used to create a neuromorphic network. Voltage pulses draw the droplets into contact and enable rewiring of the network through electrowetting. Results show that the heterogeneous droplet compositions and pore‐forming molecules may be used to tune the neuromorphic properties of the device using trapped charge as a form of
