电子纸( Electronic Paper, 简称 E-Paper )是一种非常接近纸张的显示装 置, 具有自由弯曲的特性, 还具有对比度高、 分辨率高、 视角大、 功耗小、 制造成本低等优点。 电子纸的显示原理也不同于一般的平板显示器, 电子纸 不需要利用背光源, 可以靠反射环境光来显示图像, 而且在不加电的情况下 也能够保留住原先显示的图像。 因此, 电子纸广泛应用于零售商店价签, 数 字标牌, 公交车到站时间表, 电子公告牌, 手机屏幕, 电子书阅读器等场景。 基于电泳技术的电子紙目前应用最为广泛。
目前的基于电泳技术的电子纸的显示方式可以通过颜色的混配来实现全 色, 而颜色混配的显示方式存在混色的现象,导致电子纸不能 ^艮好的显示红、 绿、 蓝等单色。 为实现彩色电泳显示, 也可以通过单一颜色的电泳显示搭配 彩色滤光片, 但彩色滤光片对光线的吸收作用使电泳显示装置的亮度大大降 低。 发明内容

为了更清楚地说明本发明实施例的技术方案, 下面将对实施例的附图作 简单地介绍,显而易见地, 下面描述中的附图仅仅涉及本发明的一些实施例, 而非对本发明的限制。
图 1为本发明的实施例所提供的彩色电泳显示面板的结构示意图; 图 2a至图 2e为本发明的实施例所提供的彩色电泳显示面板的工作过程 的示意图;
图 3为本发明的实施例所提供的彩色电泳显示面板的另一种实施方式的 结构示意图;
图 4a至图 4h为本发明的实施例所提供的彩色电泳显示面板的制造方法 的示意图。 具体实施方式
为使本发明实施例的目的、 技术方案和优点更加清楚, 下面将结合本发 明实施例的附图, 对本发明实施例的技术方案进行清楚、 完整地描述。 显然, 所描述的实施例是本发明的一部分实施例, 而不是全部的实施例。 基于所描 述的本发明的实施例, 本领域普通技术人员在无需创造性劳动的前提下所获 得的所有其他实施例, 都属于本发明保护的范围。
本发明实施例所提供的彩色电泳显示面板, 包括: 多个像素单元, 每个 像素单元包括两种以上不同颜色的电泳粒子, 且驱动不同颜色的电泳粒子的 阈值电压不同。 这里的阈值电压是能够驱动电泳粒子移动的最小驱动电压。 在外加驱动电压小于阈值电压的情况下,电泳粒子在电压的影响下不会移动。
本发明实施例所提供的彩色电泳显示面板中, 每个像素单元中都填充有 两种以上不同颜色的电泳粒子, 并且驱动不同颜色的电泳粒子的阈值电压各 不相同, 所以可以通过对像素单元施加适当大小的驱动电压, 使单独一种颜 色的电泳粒子悬浮至上基板, 使该像素单元显示单一的颜色, 从而实现了单 一颜色的显示, 并且避免了混色现象。
如图 1所示, 本发明实施例所提供的彩色电泳显示面板, 包括下基板 1、 上基板 2、 像素电极 11、 公共电极 21、 隔墙 23和电泳层 3。 多个间隔的像素 电极 11设置在下基板 1上,各个像素电极 11之间通过绝缘层 12隔开,每个 像素电极 11对应一个像素单元。 公共电极 21设置在上基板 2上, 公共电极 21可以是在上基板 2上形成一块平面状的公共电极 21 ,也可以分隔成多个间 隔的部分,每个部分对应一个像素单元。 电泳层 3设置于像素电极 11与公共 电极 21之间。 电泳层 3包括油溶液,油溶液中混有两种以上不同颜色的电泳 粒子, 且驱动不同颜色的电泳粒子的阈值电压不同。 下基板 1与上基板 2之 间还设有隔墙 23, 隔墙 23分割出各个像素单元, 并且将电泳层 3分隔在各 个像素单元区域内, 该隔墙 23的材料优选为高分子材料。 进一步, 上基板 2 上还设置有黑矩阵 22, 黑矩阵 22设置于隔墙 23对应的位置。
本发明实施例中, 电泳层 3的油溶液中混有三种不同颜色的电泳粒子, 包括第一有色电泳粒子、 第二有色电泳粒子、 第三有色电泳粒子。 此外油溶 液中还混有白色粒子 ( W ) 。 驱动第一有色电泳粒子、 第二有色电泳粒子和 第三有色电泳粒子的阐值电压分別为第一阈值电压 EA、 第二阈值电压 EB和 第三阈值电压 Ec。 例如, 白色粒子为非带电粒子, 因此, 白色粒子的移动基 本不会受到外加电场的影响。
例如, 第一有色电泳粒子、 第二有色电泳粒子和第三有色电泳粒子的颜 色可包括: 蓝色、 绿色、 红色、 洋红色、 青色或黄色。 本实施例中, 以三种 有色电泳粒子分别为蓝色 (B ) 、 绿色 (G ) 、 红色 (R ) 为例进行说明, 如 图 1 所示。 驱动蓝色、 绿色和红色的电泳粒子的阈值电压分别为 Eb、 Eg和 Er, 白色粒子为普通悬浮粒子 (例如, 非带电粒子) , 在油溶液中做布朗运 动。
本实施例中, 以蓝色的电泳粒子的阈值电压 Eb最大, 红色的电泳粒子的 阈值电压 Er最小为例进行说明, 即 Er < Eg < Eb, 根据三种电泳粒子的阈值电 压提供三种大小不同的外加驱动电压 E2、 E3, 并满足 Er Ei Eg Es E E3
例如, 上述不同颜色的电泳粒子的不同阈值电压可以通过不同颜色的电 泳粒子的不同荷质比来实现。
彩色电泳显示面板显示图像的工作方式如下:
对像素单元施加大小为 -E3的电压, 也就是在像素电极 11与公共电极 21 之间形成大小为 -E3的电场,如图 1所示,将三种彩色电泳粒子全部吸附在像 素电极 21上,使像素单元中的彩色电泳粒子都位于下基板 1处,而显示白色, 作为初始状态。
当某一像素单元需要显示蓝色时, 先对该像素单元施加大小为 E3的电 压, 如图 2a所示, 将三种有色电泳粒子全部吸附在上基板 2的公共电极 21 上, 再对该像素单元施加大小为 -E2的电压, 如图 2b所示, 将红色和绿色的 电泳粒子吸附在下基板 1的像素电极 11上,此时就只有蓝色的电泳粒子留在 上基板 2处, 从而使该像素单元显示蓝色。
当某一像素单元需要显示绿色时, 先对该像素单元施加大小为 E2的电 压, 如图 2c所示, 将红色和绿色的电泳粒子吸附在上基板 2的公共电极 21 上, 而蓝色的电泳粒子留在下基板 1处,再对该像素单元施加大小为 - 的电 压, 如图 2d所示, 将红色的电泳粒子吸附在下基板 1的像素电极 11上, 此 时就只有绿色的电泳粒子留在上基板 2处, 从而使该像素单元显示绿色。
当某一像素单元需要显示红色时,对该像素单元施加大小为 的电压即 可, 如图 2e所示, 将红色的电泳粒子吸附在上基板 2的公共电极 21上, 而 绿色和蓝色的电泳粒子留在下基板 1处, 从而使该像素单元显示红色。
本发明实施例提供的彩色电泳显示面板中, 由于每个像素单元中都填充 有白色粒子, 以及红色、 绿色、 蓝色的电泳粒子, 并且驱动红色、 绿色、 蓝 色三种电泳粒子的阈值电压各不相同, 所以可以通过对像素单元施加适当大 小的驱动电压, 使单独一种颜色的电泳粒子悬浮至上基板 2, 使该像素单元 显示单一的红色、 绿色、 蓝色, 从而实现了单一颜色的显示, 并且避免了混 色现象。
当然, 在其他实施方式中, 驱动红色、 绿色、 蓝色三种电泳粒子的阈值 电压的大小关系也可以有所变化, 例如 Eb < Eg < Er等等。
进一步, 本发明实施例中, 公共电极 21的材料为透明导电高分子材料, 且公共电极 21表面还形成有纳米金粒子 24, 如图 3所示。 纳米金粒子 24对 电泳粒子具有很好的吸附作用,所以纳米金粒子 24能够使电泳粒子更好的吸 附在上基板 2上, 提高了图像的稳定性, 改善了因外界应力或者电场分布不 均导致颜色显示不均的现象。
另外, 需要说明的是, 以上通过不同颜色的电泳粒子的阈值电压大小不 同来实现驱动各种电泳粒子处于不同位置。 然而,本发明实施例并不限于此。 例如, 不同颜色的电泳粒子可以带有不同种类的电荷。 在一个示例中, 某些 颜色的粒子带有正电荷, 某些颜色的粒子带有负电荷, 带有同种电荷的粒子 的不同颜色的电泳粒子的阈值电压大小不同。 以此方式, 也可以实现彩色显 示。
本发明实施例还提供了该彩色电泳显示面板的制造方法, 包括: S101 : 在下基板上形成多个间隔的像素电极。
该步骤可包括:
S1011 : 如图 4a所示, 在下基板 1上形成第一透明导电层的图形 111。 在下基板 1上沉积透明导电层, 该透明导电层的材料优选为铟锡氧化物 ( Indium Tin Oxides, 简称 ITO ) , 通过构图工艺并刻蚀形成第一透明导电 层的图形 111。
S1012: 如图 4b所示, 在下基板 1上的第一透明导电层的图形 111的间 隙处形成绝缘层 12的图形。
在下基板 1上沉积一层绝缘薄膜, 该绝缘薄膜的材料例如为硅的氮化物 ( SiNx ) , 厚度例如为 3000-400θΑ。 通过构图工艺并刻蚀, 在第一透明导电 层的图形 111的间隙处形成绝缘层 12图形。
S1013: 如图 4c所示, 在绝缘层 12上形成第二透明导电层的图形 112, 绝缘层 12隔开第一透明导电层的图形 111和第二透明导电层的图形 112,且 第一透明导电层的图形 111和第二透明导电层的图形 112组成多个间隔的像 素电极 11。
在下基板 1 上沉积第二层透明导电层(ITO ) , 通过构图工艺并刻蚀形 成第二透明导电层的图形 112, 如图 4c所示, 被绝缘层 12隔开的第一透明 导电层的图形 111和第二透明导电层的图形 112组成像素电极 11。
当然, 本发明实施例形成间隔的像素电极的方式并不限于上述步骤。 例 如, 也可以仅仅形成一层透明导电层, 然后通过图案化该透明导电层来形成 多个间隔的像素电极。
S102: 如图 4d所示, 将用于形成电泳层 3的溶液旋涂于形成有像素电 极的下基板上, 该溶液中包括两种以上不同颜色的电泳粒子, 例如蓝色、 绿 色和红色的电泳粒子, 且驱动不同颜色的电泳粒子的阈值电压不同。
该彩色电泳显示面板的制造方法还包括:
S201 : 如图 4e所示, 在上基板 2上形成公共电极 21 , 公共电极 21的材 料例如为透明的导电高分子材料。 形成该高分子材料的单体的通式为
RM-[A]-[B] , 其中 RM为可聚合端基, A为刚性结构, 例如苯环、 环己烷等, B为烷基。
该步骤可以包括:
S2011: 在上基板上形成可聚合单体层。
例如, 在上基板上旋涂可聚合单体, 该可聚合单体可以选用常见的带有 双键的可聚合单体。
S2012: 对可聚合单体施加一定频率的电压, 使可聚合单体聚合形成导 电高分子层, 作为公共电极。
因为电场频率能影响可聚合单体的扩散速度, 所以通过施加一定频率的 电压就可以控制可聚合单体聚合所形成的高分子聚合物的网络尺寸, 从而影 响高分子聚合物的网络的结构。 如果电场频率较低, 则可聚合单体扩散快, 形成的高分子聚合物的网络较稀疏, 网孔较大, 作为公共电极时的响应速度 较慢, 但关态透过率高, 阈值电压和饱和电压较小; 如果电场频率较高, 则 可聚合单体扩散慢, 形成的高分子聚合物网络较致密, 网孔较小, 作为公共 电极时的响应速度较快, 但关态透过率低, 阈值电压和饱和电压较大。 因此, 对可聚合单体施加的电场的频率不能太高, 也不能太低。
本发明实施例中使用的电压例如为 20V, 频率例如为 Ο-lkHz, 步长例如 为 200Hz。
形成透明导电高分子材料公共电极也可以采用其他工艺方法,例如喷涂、 旋涂等。 此外, 形成公共电极的材料也可以为其他的透明导电材料。
进一步, 还可以包括 S2013: 如图 4e所示, 对导电高分子层进行图案化 工艺, 作为分隔的公共电极 21。 具体可通过构图工艺并刻蚀形成分隔的公共 电极 21。
当然, 在其他实施方式中也可以不进行步骤 S2013 , 而在上基板上形成 一块平面状的公共电极。
S202: 如图 4f所示, 在上基板 2上沉积形成黑矩阵 22, 黑矩阵 22对应 各个像素单元之间的间隔部分。
S203: 如图 4g所示, 在黑矩阵 22上沉积并形成隔墙 23, 该隔墙 23的 材料优选为高分子材料。 在其他实施方式中, 隔墙也可以形成于下基板上。 作为一个优选方案, 在步骤 S201之后还可以包括:
S204: 如图 4h所示, 在公共电极 21上形成纳米金粒子 24。
具体的,将形成有公共电极 21的上基板 2置于纳米金溶液中,放置的时 间在 5小时以上, 这样纳米金粒子就会在公共电极 21 (导电高分子材料)表 面进行自組装, 而且在导电高分子材料的网络节点处, 纳米金粒子会较多沉 积, 从而形成均匀分布的纳米金粒子 24凸起。
该彩色电泳显示面板的制造方法还包括:
S3: 将下基板和上基板进行对盒。 例如, 下基板形成有像素电极的一侧 于上基板形成有公共电极的一侧相面对。
通过常规的对盒工艺, 将上基板与下基板对盒, 即可形成本发明实施例 所提供的彩色电泳显示面板, 如图 3所示。
本发明实施例还提供一种显示装置, 可以是电子书、 数字标牌、 电子书 阅读器等具有显示功能的产品或部件, 该显示装置中包括上述本发明实施例 所提供的彩色电泳显示面板。
由于本发明实施例所提供的显示装置与上述本发明实施例所提供的彩色 电泳显示面板具有相同的技术特征, 所以也能产生相同的技术效果, 解决相 同的技术问题。
以上所述仅是本发明的示范性实施方式, 而非用于限制本发明的保护范 围, 本发明的保护范围由所附的权利要求确定。
