| Abstract |
Switchability is a highly sought after feature for planar optical systems. Suspensions of nanomaterials can be used for generating controllable changes in such systems. We report a planar diffractive microfluidic lens which integrates controlled dielectrophoresis (DEP) for trapping suspended nanomaterials. Silicon and tungsten oxide nanoparticle suspensions are used. These nanomaterials are trapped in such a way as to form alternating opaque and transparent rings using the DEP forces on demand. These rings form a planar diffractive Fresnel zone plate to focus the incident light. The Fresnel zone plate is tuned for the visible light region and the lens can be turned on (DEP applied) or off (DEP removed) in a controlled manner. This proof of concept demonstration can be further expanded for a variety of switchable optical devices and can be integrated with lab-on-a-chip and optofluidic devices. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 19 December 2014.
All research outputs
#23,109,385
of 25,756,911 outputs
Outputs from Lab on a Chip - Miniaturisation for Chemistry & Biology
#5,387
of 5,997 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#308,877
of 361,654 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Lab on a Chip - Miniaturisation for Chemistry & Biology
#394
of 505 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,756,911 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 5,997 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 7.4. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 361,654 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 505 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
