Simulation the Dynamic Property of Dielectric Oil on Thin Film Based on Dielectrophoretic Forces
Recently, there has been intense interest in refractive displays based on electrowetting, including e-paper. Electrowetting is a fast and efficient tool to deliver, mix or split micro or nano-liter volumes of liquid droplets with a relatively low electrical potential and power consumption, and has been well considered in display devices. Somehow some devices based on liquid control can also be realized on Dielectrophoresis. The original term Dielectrophoresis refers to the force exerted on the induced dipole moment of an uncharged dielectric particle by a non-uniform electric field. But occasionally, Dielectrophoresis can also be employed in reference to control insulating dielectric liquids using non-uniform electric fields. In this paper, we present a model with dielectric oil on thin film layer under electric field to produce static wrinkles at the surface of thin oil film as a result of dielectrophoretic forces. The dynamic property of the oil is simulated and studied. The results can be used to support the theories and experiments on Dielectrophoresis in the future, and also provide theory evidence in researches and applications.
