Abstract
We introduce a new electrowetting effect, continuous electrowetting (CEW), and show its advantages for applications to displays and other electro‐optic devices. We demonstrate experimentally, by using CEW, fast and reversible electrowetting flow on the theoretically predicted scale of ∼10 cm/s for ∼1‐V driving voltage.Keywords
