Abstract:
1. An electroosmotic movable device, comprising: a liquid chamber housing a liquid; a conductive movable structure that is placed in the liquid chamber, and has one of a rotating shaft and a supporting point and has a conductive portion; and an electrode for applying an electric field to the conductive movable structure, wherein the conductive movable structure is enabled to move by an electroosmotic flow which occurs in an electric double layer portion formed by being paired with electric charges induced in the conductive movable structure owing to the electric field applied from the electrode, and wherein the conductive movable structure has a mirror surface, and the conductive movable structure is enabled to move by applying an electric field to the conductive movable structure to scan light incident on the mirror surface.
