Color e-Paper Technology with Electrochemistry
This paper focuses on novel e-paper technology with electrochemical reaction. First, we will show our recent results on EC materials and devices which show three primary colors (CMY) in subtractive color mixture system1, 2. Electrodeposition is also attractive method to create colors3-5. We will discuss the mechanism of electro-deposition and a wide range of its applications.
We also demonstrated novel display device with dual reflective and emissive modes. This is called dual mode display (DMD). DMD enables both reflective and emissive mode of representation which can be chosen as a situation demand. We fabricated DMD by combining both electrochromic (EC) and electrochemiluminescence (ECL) materials in a single cell6, 7. The device functions as an EC cell in the reflective mode, and as an ECL cell in the emissive mode.
