2. According to given information, which one does not reflect the truth?
A) Capacitance is increased by reducing the thicknesses of the layers of the
substrate.
B) Breakdown of the dielectric occurs when the electric field in the dielectric
exceeds the critical electric field.
C) Droplets can be dispensed, merged, and mixed using electrical signals.
D) Typical chips have been designed to function unto the saturation potential.
E) Above the critical electric field value, the material become
electrically more conductive.
