Electrowetting without external voltage using paint-on electrodes

LAB ON A CHIP, 17(6), 1069–1075.

By: C. Eaker n, I. Joshipura n, L. Maxwell n, J. Heikenfeld* & M. Dickey n

TL;DR: This work presents a new method to dramatically reduce the complexity of electrode and dielectric fabrication while enabling multiple performance advances and opens up new application spaces for electrowetting (e.g. stretchable substrates, soft and injectable electrodes) while achieving large changes in contact angle without the need for an external power supply.

2017 journal article

Oxidation-Mediated Fingering in Liquid Metals

PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS, 119(17).

By: C. Eaker n, D. Hight n, . John D. O'Regan, M. Dickey n & K. Daniels n

TL;DR: It is found that electrochemical oxidation can generate compressive interfacial forces that oppose the tensile forces at a liquid interface, which is important for the development of reconfigurable electronic, electromagnetic, and optical devices that take advantage of the metallic properties of liquid metals.

A Method to Manipulate Surface Tension of a Liquid Metal via Surface Oxidation and Reduction

JOVE-JOURNAL OF VISUALIZED EXPERIMENTS, 1(107).

By: C. Eaker n, M. Khan n & M. Dickey n

author keywords: Chemistry; Issue 107; Liquid Metal; EGaIn; Electrocapillarity; Electrorheology; Spreading; Oxidation; Microfluidics
MeSH headings : Alloys / chemistry; Electrochemical Techniques / methods; Electrodes; Electrolytes / chemistry; Gallium / chemistry; Oxidation-Reduction; Surface Tension; Water / chemistry
TL;DR: This work presents a method for actuating gallium and gallium-based liquid metal alloys via an electrochemical surface reaction that controlling the electrochemical potential on the surface of the liquid metal in electrolyte rapidly and reversibly changes the interfacial tension by over two orders of magnitude.

2014 journal article

Giant and switchable surface activity of liquid metal via surface oxidation

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 111(39), 14047–14051.

By: M. Khan*, C. Eaker*, E. Bowden n & M. Dickey*

author keywords: EGaIn; electrocapillarity; electrorheology; dewetting; spreading
TL;DR: This work suggests that the wetting properties of surface oxides—which are ubiquitous on most metals and semiconductors—are intrinsic “surfactants” that can be harnessed to induce previously unidentified electrohydrodynamic phenomena for manipulating liquid metal alloys based on gallium.
