The present invention relates to a display device, and more particularly to an electrophoretic display device.

Today, a large amount of information can be carried, and a display device such as a personal computer that can convey a large amount of information can read articles such as newspapers and magazines, but the amount of information that can be carried in a fast paced information society Information is transmitted by a medium such as a few newspapers and magazines.

 As such, the reason why the newspapers and magazines do not disappear is that power to maintain a screen for a long time to turn on the display device and wait for a while to use the display device and to read the newspapers and magazines is large. There are disadvantages.

Therefore, there is a need for a display device capable of solving the disadvantages of the display device and displaying contents such as newspapers and magazines. As such, the electronic paper may be implemented by the display device.

The electronic paper may be formed in a thin thickness and is a display capable of displaying and deleting data by electrical means. In other words, electronic paper capable of expressing text and images is expected to be a medium that can deliver information quickly by combining features of traditional print media and features of video screens.

In addition, the electronic paper has been highlighted as a new display device with emphasis on high visibility and simplicity, which is weak in a liquid crystal display device.

The electronic paper may be implemented by using a charging bead, a method of driving a charged particle by electrophoresis, and the like.

As an embodiment, a method of driving charged particles by electrophoresis will be described, and a display device driven by the above method will be referred to as an electrophoretic display device.

The electrophoretic display has a characteristic that the screen does not disappear even when the power is turned off, compared to the conventional flat panel display. As a result, the electrophoretic display needs to apply power only to change the screen, thereby achieving low power consumption and securing the same characteristics as conventional paper.

1A and 1B are diagrams for describing a conventional electrophoretic display device. 1A is a plan view illustrating a conventional electrophoretic display, and FIG. 1B is a cross-sectional view taken along line II ′ of FIG. 1A.

1A and 1B, in the electrophoretic display 501, a plurality of gate lines 530 and data lines 560 intersect each other on a substrate 510. In this case, an area partitioned by the gate 530 and the data line 560 is defined as an area of a pixel cell 507.

In addition, the electrophoretic display 501 is formed in parallel with the gate line 530, and the common line 520 is spaced apart from each other at a predetermined interval.

Here, a common electrode 525 connected to the common line 520 is formed in an area of the pixel cell 507. The common electrode 525 occupies a predetermined area of an area of the pixel cell 507 and overlaps with a metal formed on the common electrode 525 to form a display voltage holding capacity of the electrophoretic display 501. Do it.

A thin film transistor TR is formed at an intersection of the gate line 530 and the data line 560. That is, the thin film transistor TR includes a gate electrode 532, a semiconductor layer 550, and source / drain electrodes 560a and 560b.

In detail, a gate insulating layer 540 is formed on the gate line 530, and a data line 560 is formed on the gate insulating layer 540. Here, a source electrode 560a is connected to the data line 560, and the drain electrode 560b is formed to be spaced apart from the source electrode 560a with the semiconductor layer 550 interposed therebetween. The passivation layer 570 is formed on the data line 560.

The drain electrode 560b is formed with a drain 565 extending to the pixel cell 507 to serve as a capacitor. That is, the drain part 565 overlaps with the common electrode 525 below.

In the case where the electrophoretic display device 501 is an electronic paper which must maintain one image for a long time, the characteristic of the voltage holding ratio is important. Here, the voltage holding ratio means a holding ratio for maintaining the voltage in maintaining the voltage until the next signal voltage is applied after the signal voltage is applied.

At this time, in order for the electrophoretic apparatus 501 to maintain the voltage holding ratio characteristic, large capacitance is required. Thus, the electrophoretic display 501 has a large overlapping area between the common electrode 525 formed of an opaque metal film and the opaque drain 565.

As described above, as the drain part 565 overlaps with the common electrode 525, the electrophoretic display device 501 may have a display voltage holding capacity, thereby maintaining a display screen.

That is, unless the electric signal for rewriting is sent, the content displayed once does not consume electricity and maintains the display screen as it is. Therefore, the electrophoretic display 501 has an advantage of low power consumption.

A passivation layer 570 is formed on the source / drain electrodes 560a and 560b, the drain portion 565, the data line 560, and the like to protect the lines and the thin film transistor TR.

A passivation hole 575 is formed in the passivation layer 570 to partially expose the drain electrode 560b.

In this case, a first electrode 580 electrically connected to the drain electrode 560b is formed on the passivation layer 570. The first electrode 580 is formed to include the pixel cell 507 region, the gate line 530, and the data line 560.

Although not shown, an ink layer having a capsul having a plurality of charged particles and a second electrode to which a predetermined voltage is applied is provided on the first electrode 580.

Here, the plurality of charged particles provided in the ink layer is moved by the electric field. Here, the charged particles may use titanium oxide (TiO ₂ ) as the white color and carbon black (Carbon-Black) as the black color.

As described above, the electrophoretic display device 501 may display an image by moving the charged particles included in the ink layer by the electric fields formed on the first electrode 580 and the second electrode.

In this case, the electrophoretic display 501 may have a wide viewing angle because the electrophoretic display 501 is not a method of displaying an image by polarized light like a liquid crystal display.

2 is a diagram illustrating a rear surface of a conventional electrophoretic display device.

As shown in FIG. 2, the electrophoretic display device 501 is formed of an opaque metal with a plurality of lines 530 and 560 connecting the switching element TR and an electrical signal.

The line is formed on the substrate surface by a gate line 530 formed in a horizontal direction and a pixel cell 507 defined by a data line 560 formed in a vertical direction.

The gate line 530 which is integral with the opaque gate electrode 532 is formed on the surface of the substrate at predetermined intervals. The common electrode 525 is formed in the pixel cell 507 region using the same opaque metal as the gate line 530. The common electrode 525 is connected to the common line 520.

The data line 560 is formed in a direction orthogonal to the gate line 530. The data line 560 is formed of an opaque metal. Here, a source electrode 560a integrated with the data line 560 and a drain electrode 560b spaced apart from the source electrode 560a by a predetermined distance are formed on the entire surface of the substrate.

In addition, the electrophoretic display device 501 has a drain portion 565, which acts as a capacitor, to extend the drain electrode 565 so as to occupy a large area in the pixel cell 507 region to maintain a display voltage holding capacitance. It is.

The drain portion 565 is formed of the same metal as the data line 560 and is formed of an opaque metal.

As described above, the electrophoretic display device 501 serves as a capacitor, and since the drain 565 and the common electrode 525 formed of an opaque metal are formed in a large area in the pixel cell 507 area, The rear surface of the electrophoretic display device 501 is obscured by an opaque metal so that the image cannot be clearly seen.

Accordingly, the display direction of the electrophoretic display device 501 is limited by the plurality of opaque lines 530 and 560, the opaque drain 565, and the common electrode 525.

It is an object of the present invention to provide a table market value capable of displaying a screen in both directions while maintaining the voltage holding ratio.

The common electrode may be formed of a transparent conductive material including ITO or IZO.

In this case, the electrophoretic display device displays an image on a front display part by moving the charged particles, and transmits an image on the rear display part by the first electrode, the second electrode, and the common electrode formed of a transparent conductive material. It is done.

The gate line 30 and the data line 60 intersect each other on the substrate 10, and the pixel cell 7 is defined in an area partitioned between the gate line 30 and the data line 60.

The common cell 20 formed of a predetermined area and formed of a transparent conductive material is formed in the pixel cell 7. Here, the transparent conductive material may use ITO, IZO, or the like.

The common electrode 20 is formed in a predetermined area in the pixel cell 7 area, and the electrophoretic display device 1 has a film-like ink layer 3 on the first electrode 80 which will be described later. Since the ink layer 3 has low resistance, leakage current may be generated. That is, the charging voltage for screen maintenance of the electrophoretic display device 1 may be naturally discharged, causing the screen to flicker. Therefore, the common electrode 20 is preferably formed in a large area in the pixel cell 7 region.

The common line 35 is formed on the substrate 10 at regular intervals in a direction parallel to the gate line 30. The common line 35 is provided on the common electrode 20 formed of the transparent conductive material so that the common electrode 20 can be electrically connected to the common line 35.

The gate line 30 and the common line 35 may be simultaneously formed of a gate metal material. The common electrode 20 is connected to the second electrode 120 provided in the ink layer 3 to apply a predetermined voltage to the second electrode 120.

The source electrode 60a has a shape in which a portion of the data line 60 is protruded and is integrated with the data line 60. The drain electrode 60b is formed to be spaced apart by a predetermined interval with the semiconductor layer 50 interposed therebetween.

The passivation layer 70 is formed on the gate insulating layer 40 on which the switching element Tr and the data line 60 are formed. Here, the passivation film 70 may be made of BCB, acrylic resin or silicone resin. In this case, the passivation layer 70 is provided with a contact hole 75 exposing a portion of the drain electrode 60b.

The first electrode 80 is formed on the passivation film 70. The first electrode 80 may drive the charged particles 110 provided in the ink layer 3. The first electrode 80 is electrically connected to the drain electrode 60b through the contact hole 75.

The first electrode 80 may be formed to overlap the pixel cell 7 region, the gate line 30, and the predetermined region of the data line 60.

As such, the first electrode 80 is formed to overlap the gate line 30, the data line 60, the common electrode 20, and the common line 35. As a result, since the area of the first electrode 80 overlapping the common electrode 20 and the common line 35 is large, the capacitance of the driver layer 5 is large. That is, it is possible to secure the charging voltage for maintaining the display screen of the electrophoretic display device (1).

In this case, the first electrode 80 is formed up to the gate line 30 and the data line 60. This may occur when the charged particles 110 included in the ink layer 3 react by the voltage applied to the gate line 30 and the data line 60. Accordingly, since the charging particle 110 may not be controlled, the first electrode 80 may be formed up to the gate line 30 and the data line 60.

As such, the driver layer 5 includes a switching element TR capable of switching the first electrode 80 and a common electrode 20 capable of forming a charging voltage for maintaining the screen. Form in the area.

Accordingly, the common electrode 20 is formed of a transparent conductive material including ITO and IZO in the pixel cell 7 region, thereby forming a transparent driver layer 5 through which light can pass.

In this case, the black particles may be charged with a negative charge, and the white particles may be charged with a positive charge.

The charged particles 110 are driven by a voltage applied to the first electrode 80. Here, the second electrode 120 is connected to the common line 35 provided in the driver layer 5 to apply a constant voltage, and the first electrode 80 has a voltage and a variable voltage switched by a switching element. Is approved. The charged particles 110 having positive and negative charges are moved toward the first electrode 80 and the second electrode 120 by the applied variable voltage and the constant voltage.

That is, when a positive voltage is applied to the first electrode 80, the second electrode 120 has a relatively negative potential. As a result, the negatively charged black particles move to the first electrode 80, while the positively charged white particles move to the second electrode 120. As a result, when external light is irradiated to the electrophoretic display device 1, external light incident by the white particles is reflected to implement white.

On the contrary, when a negative voltage is applied to the first electrode 80, the second electrode 120 has a relatively positive potential. As a result, the black particles charged with the negative charge move to the second electrode 120, while the white particles charged with the positive charge move to the first electrode 80. As a result, when external light is irradiated to the electrophoretic display device 1, external light incident by the black particles is absorbed to implement black.

As described above, the electrophoretic display device 1 includes the charged particles 110 included in the ink layer 3 by an electric field generated between the first electrode 80 and the second electrode 120. The image can be displayed by moving.

However, since the common electrode 20 serving as a capacitor is formed of a transparent conductive material such as ITO and IZO in the driver layer 5 of the electrophoretic display device 1 of the present invention, the driver layer 5 is transparent. Formed.

That is, the electrophoretic display device 1 displaying an image by the movement of the charged particles 110 may display the image in both directions due to the color of the charged particles 110.

5A is a view showing a front display of the electrophoretic display according to the present invention, and FIG. 5B is a view showing a rear display of the electrophoretic display according to the present invention.

As shown in FIGS. 5A and 5B, since the common electrode 20 serving as a capacitor of the electrophoretic display device 1 is formed of a transparent conductive material such as ITO or IZO, the driver layer 5 is formed. It is formed transparent. Therefore, an image may be displayed on the rear surface of the electrophoretic display device 1.

Referring to FIG. 5A, when the black particles are moved toward the first electrode 80 by the front portion of the electrophoretic display device 1, the background becomes black, and the white particles having a relative charge are the second electrodes. The image may be displayed on the front display part in white while being moved in the direction of 120.

As shown in FIG. 5B, the electrophoretic display 1 displays an image on the rear surface of the electrophoretic display 1 because the common electrode 20 formed in the pixel cell 7 is a transparent conductive material. Becomes possible.

That is, an image may be displayed on the back of the electrophoretic display 1 as black particles on the white background as opposed to the front display. As such, the electrophoretic display 1 may display images on both sides without increasing the power consumption of the electrophoretic display 1.

A source electrode 60a integrated with the data line 60 and a drain electrode 60b spaced apart from the source electrode 60a by a predetermined distance are formed on the semiconductor layer 50. As such, the switching element Tr is formed in an area where the data line 60 and the gate line 30 cross each other.

The passivation layer 70 is formed on the substrate 10 on which the data line 60 is formed. The passivation layer 70 protects the switching element TR and protects the plurality of lines 30 and 60 connected to the switching element TR.
