Display comprising an increased inter-pixel gap
View Patent ↗A display structure is described comprising a displaying medium, a backplane provided with an active matrix and a pixel pad comprising a plurality of pixels having an inter-pixel spacing, said pixel pad superposing the active matrix, wherein the inter-pixel spacing is in the range of 2.5-40 micrometers, preferably in the range of 8-20 micrometers.
1. A display comprising:
a displaying medium;
a backplane provided with an active matrix;
a pixel pad comprising a plurality of pixels having an inter-pixel spacing, said pixel pad superposing the active matrix; and
a data line disposed on a lower layer between the pixel pad and the active matrix, and provided in a region corresponding to the inter-pixel spacing, wherein the inter-pixel spacing is in the range of 8-40 micrometers.
2. The display according to claim 1 , wherein the inter-pixel spacing is in the range of 8-20 micrometers.
3. The display according to claim 2 , wherein the inter-pixel spacing is 20-50% of a distance between a pixel electrode and a counter electrode.
4. The display according to claim 1 , wherein the inter-pixel spacing is smaller than a distance between a pixel electrode and a counter electrode used for controlling the pixel switching state.
5. The display according to claim 1 , wherein the display medium comprises an electrophoretic display effect layer.
6. The display according to claim 5 , wherein the electrophoretic display effect layer comprises a plurality of capsules provided with a colored medium, or a plurality of capsules provided with at least two contrastingly colored substances.
7. The display according to claim 1 , wherein the display medium is operable using electrowetting.
8. A display comprising:
a displaying medium;
a backplane provided with an active matrix;
a pixel pad comprising a plurality of pixels having an inter-pixel spacing, said pixel pad superposing the active matrix; and
a data line disposed on a lower layer between the pixel pad and the active matrix and provided in a region corresponding to the inter-pixel spacing, wherein the width of the inter-pixel spacing is equal or more than 20% of a distance between a pixel electrode and a counter electrode used for controlling the pixel switching state and less than 40 micrometers.
9. The display according to claim 8 , wherein the width of the inter-pixel spacing is in the range of 2.5-40 um.
10. A method of manufacturing a display comprising a displaying medium, a backplane provided with an active matrix, a pixel pad comprising a plurality of pixels having an inter-pixel spacing, and a data line disposed on a lower layer between the pixel pad and the active matrix and provided in a region corresponding to the inter-pixel spacing, the method comprising the steps of:
providing a pixel pad superposing the active matrix, wherein the inter-pixel spacing is in the range of 2.5-40 micrometers; and
providing a data line on a lower layer between the pixel pad and the active matrix in a region corresponding to the inter-pixel spacing.
11. The method according to claim 10 , wherein the inter-pixel spacing is smaller than a distance between a pixel electrode and a counter electrode used for controlling the pixel switching state.
12. The method of claim 10 , wherein the inter-pixel spacing is in the range of 8-20 micrometers.
