Summary:The examples herein relate to assembly techniques and structures for an electrowetting cell, e.g. a fluid lens, a fluid prism or a single cell that may support both variable lens and variable prism functions. The resulting cell structure, for example, may support both beam shaping and steering functions, e.g. supporting use of the same electrowetting cell structure for a wider variety of optical processing applications. The resulting cell may be used in combination with an optical/electrical transducer or an array of cells may be used with a transducer in systems for a various light input and/or output applications.
