Electroadhesive microgrippers

Abstract

Describes the benefits of using electroadhesion when handling very delicate, polished and/or coated optical and electro‐optical microcomponents. Electroadhesion is a technique already familiar to those working in the semiconductor industry and is eminently suitable for the handling of microcomponents in air, gas or vacuum.
