  • APPARATUS FOR OPERATING AN ELECTROACTIVE DEVICE AND A METHOD OF USING THE SAME
    Publication number: 20200326603
    Abstract: A method of controlling an electroactive device can include operating the electroactive device at an operating parameter for a first period of time, applying a switching voltage having a first magnitude and a first polarity to the electroactive device for a second period of time, and applying a step-wise overshoot voltage having a second magnitude and a second polarity to the electroactive device for a transition period of time. The first magnitude can be greater than the second magnitude, and the first polarity can be the same as the second polarity. The method can also include applying a reverse overshoot voltage having a third magnitude and a third polarity to the electroactive device. The third polarity can be the opposite the second polarity.
