  • Bi-Stable Electrowetting Optical Element and Driving Method Therefor
    Publication number: 20070263306
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an optical element, used e.g. in an electrowetting display device comprising a number of pixels, arranged in an array. Each optical element comprises a cell filled with a polar conductive fluid (5), such as a water solution, and a non-polar fluid (6), such as an oil. The cell further comprises first and second planar electrodes (7, 10), covered with first and second hydrophobic layers (8, 11). By applying a voltage between on one hand the first fluid and on the second hand alternately the first or second electrodes (7, 10), the oil (6) is forced to migrate between the first and second hydrophobic layers (8, 11). Thus a bi-stable, energy efficient optical element is provided.

  • Lithography system using a programmable electro-wetting mask
    Publication number: 20070134560
    Abstract: A maskless lithography system is described having a programmable mask to allow performing several lithographic steps using the same mask. In every lithographic step, the corresponding pattern is obtained by providing a digital pattern to the programmable mask. The programmable mask includes an array of pixels which are based on the electro-wetting principle. According to this principle, every pixel has a transparent reservoir containing a first, non-polar, non-transparent fluid and a second, polar, transparent fluid which are immiscible. Applying a field to the reservoir allows to displace the fluids with respect to each other. This allows to make the pixel either transparent or non-transparent. This lithographic programmable mask allows high resolution and fast setting and refreshing. A corresponding method for performing maskless optical lithography also is described.

  • Electrowetting display device
    Publication number: 20070075941
    Abstract: Several possibilities of driving devices (13,14,15) for optical switches, especially displays (1) based on the principle of electrowetting are given. This principle uses optical switches comprising a first fluid (5) and a second fluid (6) immiscible with each other within a space between a first transparent support plate (3) and a second support plate (4), the second fluid being electro˜conductive or polar.

  • Electrowetting module
    Publication number: 20070058094
    Abstract: An electrowetting module (20) comprises a fluid chamber (8) which contains a first fluid (A) and a second fluid (B), which are separated by an interface (14), and means to (16, 17) exert a force on at least one of the fluids to change the position and/or shape of the interface. By providing at least one of the fluids with a compound having a zero dipole moment in the gaseous phase, the performance of the module can be enhanced. For example the optical power of an electrowetting lens (30) can be increased.
