The transportation of LCDs on the microcomb electrodes. (a) POM micrographs of LCDs after voltage application. Images were taken every 1/3 s. Square markers and red arrows indicate the centers of gravity of LCDs and deviation from 1/3 s ago, respectively. (b) Voltage activated transport of LCDs. We obtained the centers of gravity of LCDs every 0.1 s and superimposed the trajectories on a typical POM image. (c) Distribution of electrostatic energy density on the microcomb electrodes from numerical analysis. The color map shows the electrostatic energy density.
