The function of electrowetting liquid lenses is expanding beyond tunable focal length lensing. Recently, single and multi-mode oscillations on the meniscus profile of two non-miscible liquids have been used for optical phase modulation and fast focal length sweeping. To achieve a user-defined phase modulation, a prediction model of oscillation patterns and amplitudes is needed. We present digital holographic interferometry (DHI) measurements of oscillation patterns and amplitudes on a 5.8mm aperture lens up to 160 Hz, including frequency responses from 26-100 Hz. We discuss using Bessel function and Legendre polynomial models for oscillations on a conical frustum shaped electrowetting lens.
