Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
The present invention applies the voltage that is swung to the notch electrode of each pixel of the electrowetting display device to reset the oil layer to not backflow such that an additional element is not disposed in the pixel, thereby increasing the aperture ratio of the pixel. Also, the reset signal generator generating and applying the reset signal is disposed inside the electrowetting display device such that additional wiring may not be disposed in the outer part of the panel.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. An electrowetting display device comprising: a lower substrate; a pixel electrode disposed on the lower substrate; a notch electrode spaced apart from the pixel electrode by an interval; a water-repellent layer covering the pixel electrode and the notch electrode; a partition disposed on the water-repellent layer; an oil layer disposed on the water-repellent layer between partitions; a reset signal line comprising the notch electrode and a connec…
