Bistable, multi-color electrowetting displays [PDF]
2015 IEEE Photonics Conference (IPC), 2015 We have designed, fabricated, and characterized multi-color, bistable electrowetting displays. By using a unique in-plane electrode, it has been shown that these devices remain bistable, without the need for power, on the order of days.

Colored oil for electrowetting displays
Journal of Information Display, 2013 Electrowetting displays combine high transmittance, bright colors, and low-power consumption. Like liquid crystal displays, they also allow all modes of operation: reflective, transmissive, transparent, and transflective. This paper reports the latest improvements related to the main optical component, the light-absorbing oil film, and its influence on

Research progress of physics of electrowetting display devices
Acta Physica Sinica, 2023 Electrowetting refers to the phenomenon of modifying the surface tension between a liquid and a solid by adjusting the externally applied electric potential between the liquid and solid electrodes, thereby changing the contact angle between the two and causing a deformation and displacement of the droplets.

Design, Fabrication and Measurement of Full-Color Reflective Electrowetting Displays
Micromachines, 2022 We designed, fabricated and measured full-color, reflective electrowetting displays (EWDs). The display system is composed of three-layer cyan, magenta and yellow EWD elements fabricated with standard photolithographic techniques. The EWDs were driven successfully by the proposed control system and the measurement results show that the electro-optical ...

Electrowetting display pixels fabricated by nanoimprint lithography [PDF]
Advances in Engineering Research, 2015 Electrowetting displays (EWD) is a novel technology, based on the variation in coverage of a colored oil film in pixels via application of an electrostatic force. These pixels are usually fabricated by photolithography, which seriously limits materials selection and large area fabrication. In this paper, we demonstrate the feasibility of a novel method,

A Multi-Electrode Pixel Structure for Quick-Response Electrowetting Displays
Micromachines, 2022 A new reflective display technology, the electrowetting display (EWD), has the advantages of high contrast ratio, high reflectivity, and ultralow power consumption. The response speed of EWDs has an important influence on optical performance, and pixel structure is one of the key factors affecting the response speed of EWDs.
