Title:
NOVEL ADDRESSING SCHEME FOR ELECTROPHORETIC DISPLAY
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2009086687
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:

To provide novel addressing schemes for controlling electronically addressable displays.

The novel addressing schemes for controlling electronically addressable displays include a scheme for rear-addressing displays, which allows for in-plane switching of the display material. Other schemes include a rear-addressing scheme which uses a retroreflecting surface to enable greater viewing angle and contrast. Another scheme includes an electrode structure that facilitates manufacture and control of a color display. Another electrode structure facilitates addressing a display using an electrostatic stylus. Methods of using the disclosed electrode structures are also disclosed. Another scheme includes devices combining display materials with silicon transistor addressing structures.
