چکیده
This supplement to ‘Electrowetting with Electrolytes’ gives the derivation of two general equations applicable to electrowetting with an interface between two immiscible electrolytic solutions (ITIES). The first section provides a derivation of the functional to determine the Gibbs free energy, G. This result is expressed in terms of the potential and ionic-concentration distributions for droplets of arbitrary shape and volume as

Reversible ultralow-voltage liquid-liquid electrowetting without a dielectric layer.
Electrowetting-on-dielectric devices typically have operating voltages of 10-20 V. A reduction in the operating voltage could greatly reduce the energy consumption of these devices. Herein, fully reversible one-electrolyte electrowetting of a droplet on a solid metal surface is reported for the first time. A reversible change of 29° for an 800 mV step is achieved. The effects of surface roughne...
متن کاملStudy of Existence, Uniqueness, Regularity and Asymptotic Behaviour of Solutions to The Poisson-Boltzmann Equation
Electrokinetic phenomena have an important connection to microfluidics because electrolytes can be used to manipulate small masses of fluids by means of suitably applied electric fields. Fluids at such small scales appear both in various natural systems and in microdevices intended for applications ranging from gene sequencing and gene expression to micropixels in electronic paper. Perhaps one ...
متن کاملModified infiltration of solvated ions and ionic liquid in a nanoporous carbon
Infiltration of ions in a nanoporous carbon is responsive to the external electric field. If the liquid phase is an aqueous solution of electrolyte, the effective solid-liquid interfacial tension decreases as the voltage rises, similar to the electrowetting phenomenon at a large graphite surface. If the liquid phase is an ionic liquid, however, the effective interfacial tension increases with t...
متن کاملMicro Scale Addressable Superhydrophobic Reserved Batteries Using Nanostructed Materials
This paper presents the details of a novel battery architecture based on superhydrophobic nanostructured materials. Both electrodes of a battery are formed on nanostructured silicon surfaces that are subsequently treated to make them superhydrophobic, effectively separating the liquid electrolyte from the active electrode materials. A phenomenon called electrowetting that promotes electrolyte p...

The paper presents the details of a novel battery architecture based on the superhydrophobic nanostructured materials. In a proposed configuration both electrodes of a battery are formed on the nanostructured silicon surfaces that are subsequently treated to render them superhydrophobic, effectively separating liquid electrolyte from the active electrode material. When battery is activated to p...
