Abstract
An electrowetting deviceincludes a device body, a dielectric layer, an electrode, a non-polar liquid, and a polar liquid. The device bodyincludes a cell C. The dielectric layeris disposed in the cell C. The dielectric layerhas a hydrophobic surface. The electrode is configured to polarize the dielectric layer. The non-polar liquidis disposed on the hydrophobic surface in the cell C. The polar liquidis non-miscible with the non-polar liquid. The polar liquidis disposed on the hydrophobic surface in the cell C. The non-polar liquidcontains a colored material. The polar liquidcontains non-ionic molecules. The non-ionic molecule has a polar portion and a non-polar portion.
