Tunable microoptics deals with devices of which the optical properties can be changed during operation without mechanically moving solid parts. Often a droplet is actuated instead, and thus tunable microoptics is closely related to microfluidics. One such device/module/cell type is an optical shutter, which is moved in or out of the path of the light. In our case the transmitting part comprises a moving transparent and electrically conductive water droplet, embedded in a nonconductive blackened oil, that is, an opaque emulsion with attenuation of 30 dB at 570 nm wavelength over the 250 μm long light path inside the fluid (15 dB averaged over the visible spectral range). The insertion loss of the cell is 1.5 dB in the “open shutter” state. The actuation is achieved via electrowetting-on-dielectrics (EWOD) with rectangular AC voltage pulses of 2·90 V peak-to-peak at 1 kHz. To flexibly allow for horizontal, vertical, and diagonal droplet movement in the upright x-y plane, the contact structures are prepared such that four possible stationary droplet positions exist. The cell is configured as two capacitors in series (along the z axis), such that EWOD forces act symmetrically in the front and back of the 60 nl droplet with a response time of <20 ms.

The human retina is supplied by two vascular systems: the highly vascular choroidal, situated behind the retina; and the retinal, which is dependent on the restriction that the light path must be minimally disrupted. Between these two circulations, the avascular retinal layers depend on diffusion of metabolites through the tissue. Oxygen supply to these layers may be threatened by diseases affecting microvasculature, for example diabetes and hypertension, which may ultimately cause loss of sight.An accurate model of retinal blood flow will therefore facilitate the study of retinal oxygen supply and, hence, the complications caused by systemic vascular disease. Here, two simple models of the blood flow and exchange of hydrogen with the retina are presented and compared qualitatively with data obtained from experimental measurements. The models capture some interesting features of the exchange and highlight effects that will need to be considered in a more sophisticated model and in the interpretation of experimental results.

AbstractPlanktonic organisms are a cornerstone of marine ecosystems. They vary significantly in size and have a repertoire of behaviors to aid them to survive and navigate their three-dimensional environment. One of the most important cues is light. A variety of setups were used to study the swimming behavior of specific organisms, but broader and comparative investigations need more versatile solutions. With the help of 3D printing, we designed and constructed a modular and flexible behavioral observation setup that enables recordings of animals down to 50μm or up to a few centimeters. A video analysis pipeline using ImageJ and python allows a quick, automated, and robust tracking solution, capable of processing many videos automatically. A modular light path allows the addition of filters or use of pulse width modulation to equalize photon emission of LEDs or additional LEDs to mix different wavelengths. Optionally, a spectrometer can be installed to enable live monitoring of a stimulus. We tested the setup with two phototactic marine planktonic larvae. First, we investigated the spectral sensitivity of the 7-day old larvae of the polychaete Malacoceros fuliginosus and second, the behavior of the 200μm spherical bryozoan coronated larvae of Tricellaria inopinata to ultraviolet light coming from the bottom of the vessel. The setup and pipeline were able to record and analyze hundreds of animals simultaneously. We present an inexpensive, modular, and flexible setup to study planktonic behavior of a variety of sizes.
