摘要
Electrowetting lenses with record low power consumption (microwatts) have been demonstrated using high-quality parylene AF-4 dielectric layers and large dodecyl sulfate ions. Water and propylene glycol are interchanged as the polar liquid to enable diverging and converging lens operation achievable with the application of 15 V. The optical quality of the lenses is comparable to conventional microlenses and the tuning exhibits very little (<0.5 degrees) contact angle hysteresis. (C) 2015 Optical Society of America
