52. The dye cell of ref 46 contains a drop of colored oil that is immersed in a transparent electrolyte. The two fluids compete to occupy the surface area of the substrate. Applied voltage changes the result of the competition. Such micrometer-scale dye cells can be embedded on a proper substrate to be used as electronic ink in e-paper applications.
