Abstract

An configurationally simplified electrophoretic display device is disclosed. The electrophoretic display device includes a substrate including a plurality of pixels, first pixel electrodes on the substrate, second pixel electrodes to be slit on each first electrode, and an electrophoretic film disposed on the second pixel electrodes. The second pixel electrodes are slit in different widths according to a plurality of sub-pixels.

Claims (16)

1. An electrophoretic display device comprising:

a substrate including a plurality of pixels;

a first pixel electrodes on the substrate;

a second pixel electrodes to be slit on each first electrode; and

an electrophoretic film disposed on the second pixel electrodes,

wherein the pixel is included of a red sub-pixel, a green sub-pixel and a blue sub-pixel,

wherein the second pixel electrodes on the red, green and blue sub-pixels are different from each other in width.

2. The electrophoretic display device of claim 1 , wherein the slit width of the second pixel electrode for the green sub-pixel is wider than that for the blue sub-pixel and is narrower than that for the red sub-pixel.

3. The electrophoretic display device of claim 1 , further comprising:

first transistors including drain electrodes connected to each first pixel electrode; and

second transistors including drains electrodes connected to each second pixel electrode.

4. The electrophoretic display device of claim 1 , wherein each of the second pixel electrodes receives one of positive and negative polarity voltages having a fixed pulse width.

5. The electrophoretic display device of claim 1 , wherein each of the first pixel electrodes receives a signal including a pulse-width-modulated positive polarity voltage, a negative polarity voltage, and a reference voltage.

6. The electrophoretic display device of claim 1 , further comprising an insulation film, on the electrophoretic film, including a common electrode disposed thereon.

7. The electrophoretic display device of claim 6 , further comprising a light correction film on the insulation film changing a light path to enlarge a viewing angle.

8. The electrophoretic display device of claim 7 , wherein the light correction film includes an embossed pattern on its surface.
