Electrowetting has become one of the most widely used tools for manipulating tiny amounts
of liquids on surfaces. Applications range from'lab-on-a-chip'devices to adjustable lenses …

This paper reviews publications that have fortified our understanding of the electrowetting-
on-dielectric (EWOD) actuation mechanism. Over the last decade, growing interest in EWOD …

The interaction and behavior of surfaces orcolloids is of quantitative significance
inunderstanding the transport and fate ofcompounds and microorganisms in …

▪ Abstract Development and optimization of multifunctional devices for fluidic manipulation of
films, drops, and bubbles require detailed understanding of interfacial phenomena and …

This article describes the equilibrium shape of a liquid drop under applied fields such as
gravity and electrical fields, taking into account material properties such as dielectric …

In this review we examine the influence of the line tension τ on droplets and particles at
surfaces. The line tension influences the nucleation behavior and contact angle of liquid …

We analyze two representative systems containing a three-phase-contact line: a liquid lens
at a fluid-fluid interface and a liquid drop in contact with a gas phase residing on a solid …

An implicit solvent model is presented that couples hydrophobic, dispersion, and
electrostatic solvation energies by minimizing the system Gibbs free energy with respect to …

Long-range electrostatic fields deform the surface profile of a conductive liquid in the vicinity
of the contact line. We have investigated the equilibrium profiles by balancing electrostatic …

Electrowetting is becoming a more and more frequently used tool to manipulate liquids in
various microfluidic applications. On the scale of the entire drop, the effect of electrowetting …
