Display device
The present disclosure belongs to the field of display technology, and particularly relates to a display device. The display device is divided into a plurality of pixel regions, in each of which a first electrode and a second electrode are provided oppositely, and an electrophoretic medium and charged particles are provided between the first electrode and the second electrode. A reflective medium layer is further provided in each pixel region, the reflective medium layer and the second electrode are provided on a same side of the electrophoretic medium and the charged particles. The second electrode is provided in only a part of the pixel region, and the reflective medium layer is provided at least in an area of the pixel region in which the second electrode is absent. The display device has high contrast by increasing brightness in white state display.
