Understanding the dynamic electrical response of charged or uncharged hydrogel sandwiched in a parallel-plate configuration (fixed bottom plate and top floating plate) is vital if such a configuration is to be adopted as a bio-sensing platform or developed to characterize the rheological and physicochemical properties of hydrogels. Using an interferometric displacement device, this study measures small-amplitude electric-field-induced displacements (order of picometres to micrometres) in an hydrogel-embedded parallel plate configuration. It also measures the response to an impulse perturbation, and reports how the top-plate displacement amplitude and oscillation frequency reflect the hydrogel viscoelasticity and thickness. Pour comprendre le champ électrique induite par la dynamique d'hydrogel soit chargé ou non, qui est comprimé entre une plaque parallèle (une plaque de bas fixe et l'ature plaque supérieure flottante) est vital si la configuration est adoptée en tant que plate-forme de bio-detection, ou développé comme une méthode pour caractériser les propriétés rhéologiques, et propriétés physico-chimique d'hydrogel. Utilisant un dispositif de déplacement interférométrique, cette étude mesure les déplacements du champ électrique qui induite de faible amplitude (ordre des picomètres en micromètres) dans une configuration de plque parallèle d'hydrogel incorporé. Il mesure aussi la réponse d'une perturbation d'impulsion, puis ça donne le resultant de la maniere que l'amplitude se reagir du plaque supérieure avec la fréquence d'oscillation qui reflète la viscoélasticité et l'épaisseur d'hydrogel.
