- Figure 2B is an electronic book configured with row 230 and column 210 electrodes on the back of a preceding page 107 and a ground plane 108 embedded in a following page 100.
- Such an arrangement allows for addressing of said electronic page displays when said electronic book is in addressing of said electronic page displays when said electronic book is in the closed state while allowing said page displays to be viewed without having to look through a top a electrode when said book is in the open condition.
- the operation of such addressing is effected by either cancelling or adding to the electric field produced by address lines of the complimentary orthogonality.
- Figure 3 depicts a preferred embodiment of a page display 100 incorporating a simplified address line scheme configured for partial page addressability.
- a substrate 105 has deposited on or embedded in it an underlying array of row address lines 230, an electronically addressable contrast media 120 and an array of column address lines 210.
- a book configuration requires that all address lines are substantially accessible along or near a single edge of the book page. Such is the case with the schemes described in this disclosure.
- row lines 230 and column lines 210 are common to each page in the multiple page ensemble.
- Pages are addressed individually via a page address strobe comprised of page address strobe control lines 200 and 205 and page address strobe switches 220 which control whether or not a particular page's column address lines are active in response to signal applied to said page address strobe control lines. It is understood however that in each of the embodiments described page strobing may be obviated in exchange for a more complicated spine driver in which each page in the multiple page ensemble may be wired directly and separately to the display driver.
- Figure 4 depicts a preferred embodiment of a page display 100 incorporating a multilayer address line scheme configured for full page addressability.
- Edge column address line connectors 240 are connected to column address lines 250 via a conducting connection 260.
- Such a connection may be of conducting polymer, ITO, metal or other suitable conductor or may be a direct connection of the line 240 to 250 which may further be bonded with a laser weld or non conducting or conducting epoxy or other adhesive.
- In all other areas where column address line connectors 240 cross column address lines 250 there is no conducting connection as effected by the placement of a suitable insulating layer.
- the page strobe composed of page strobe control lines 200 and 205 and page strobe switches 220 operate as in Figure 3 to control the state of said column address lines.
- Figures 5A-B are schematic views of an electronically addressable page 100 in which row lines 260 emanate from the page edge and are connected to the display driver. Row lines may be common to each page.
- Column address lines are analog selected by means of applying appropriate voltages between analog column switch control line 290 and 300 and 310 and 320.
- Each column address line 270 may be denoted by a number j between 1 and N where N is the total number of column address lines per page.
- Each column address line in turn is controlled via a set of two column switches, 330 and 340, each of which in turn may be given designations k and 1 for the top and bottom control switches (330 and 340) respectively where k and 1 both range from 1 to N.
- Said column switches 330 and 340 have a uniform threshold in which the column address lines 270 which they control become active (closed circuit, denoted by a black filled box) if said column switch's control lines 290 and 300 and 310 and 320 respectively have a potential difference greater than a threshold voltage V ⁇ as measured at said switch control line input.
- Resistors 350 connect said switches 330 or 340 such that for a given applied potential difference on said switch control lines each switch sees a different and monotonicly scaled potential difference at its control line input face.
- V j and V 2 a single column address line may be selected.
- black filled control switches denote a closed switch condition and white filled control switches denote an open switch condition.
- the analog column switch control line or lines are unique and not common to each page thereby allowing for page selectability.
- Figures 6A-B are schematic views of an electronically addressable page 100 in which row lines 260 emanate from the page edge and are connected to the display driver. Row lines may be common to each page. Column address lines are digital selected by means of applying appropriate logical values for digital column switch control lines 380,382 and 384 with ground 390.
- the digital column select scheme operates as follows: Rows of digital column switches 370,372 and 374 control column address lines such that all such said column switches in a given column must be in a closed circuit state (black filled box) for said column address line to be active. In order to control N column address lines it is required to have S rows of column switches such that S is the least integer greater than Log[N]/Log[2] . In the example shown in the detail 3 rows of such column switches 370,372 and 374 control 8 column address lines 270.
- the first such row is wired such that a logical 1 applied to the said row's column switch control line, 380, yields a state in which the first N/2 switches are in a closed circuit state and the second N/2 switches are in an open circuit state.
- the second row, 382 is wired such that said switch states alternate with a period of N*2 "2 .
- the m* row alternates with a period of N*2 "m .
- an electronically addressable page 100 may be constructed in which both column address lines and row address lines are digitally selected. Such a scheme minimizes the total number of address lines emanating from the page and may simplify connections to off board address logic.
- Such a scheme employs digital column switches 371, digital column switch control lines 381 with ground 390 and column address line common terminal 395 as in Figure 6A-B as well as digital row switches 373, digital row switch control lines 383 with ground 391 and row address line common terminal 396.
- the total number of leads required to emanate from the display page for the purpose of addressing are Log[Nc]/Log[2] + Log[Nr]/Log [2] + 4 in which Nc are the number of column address lines and Nr are the number of row address lines.
- the additional 4 provides for switch grounds and common terminal lines. It is recognized that an even smaller number of emanating leads may be employed by further addressing said switch control lines with a further bank of control switches.
- row electrodes 260 and column electrodes 270 may be configured to perform an in-plane switching function by means of insulating said lines from each other by the addition of an insulating pad 264 and by addition of an added address line section 262. Two such in-plane switching arrays, one lying on top of the other are suitable for performing a dielectrophoretic switching function.
- a dielectric sphere 440 with substantially different contrast hemispheres may be microencapsulated in a microcapsule 420 and may be free to rotate in a fluid 430.
- the orientation of such a sphere may be controlled via the applied potential difference between electrode or address line 400 and 410. If one or both such electrodes are substantially transparent then an electronically addressable contrast may be effected.
- Such systems are known to posses inherent bistability or memory during open circuit due to electrostatic stiction.
- polymer dispersed liquid crystals (PDLCs) 450 may be microencapsulated or encapsulated in a microcapsule or capsule 420.
- PDLCs polymer dispersed liquid crystals
- said PDLCs are not oriented and are thus highly scattering and thus opaque. Under the application of a bias said PDLCs become aligned and are thus substantially transmitting.
- an electronically addressable contrast may be effected.
- such a contrast system may be a polymer stabilized system as is known in the prior art such that said system exhibits bistability.
- oriented LCD molecules 470 which may be microencapsulated in microcapsule 420 may be caused to rotationally orient and thus change the polarization of incident light upon application of a bias between 400 and 410.
- said arrangement may again effect an electronically addressable contrast media.
- an electrochromic material 480 and an electrolyte 490 which may be a solid electrolyte are sandwiched between electrodes 400 and 410. Application of a potential difference between said electrodes effects an electronically addressable change of contrast.
- Said electrochromic systems are known in the prior art to be capable of memory, threshold, color capabilities and operability with a solid electrolyte system.
- a dye material 491 which may have an associated positive charge or may be bound to a particle with a positive charge may be brought into proximity or separated from the pH altering or solvent substance 492 which may have a negative charge or be bound to a particle with a negative charge by means of an electric field applied to electrodes 400 and 410.
- Such a chemical system which may encapsulated in capsule 420, may constitute a field effect electronically addressable contrast media in such case as the color of said dye material is altered by said pH altering or solvent substance.
- a top transparent electrode 400 may degrade the optical characteristics of the display. This may be accomplished in a reflective display by employing in-plane switching. In plane switching techniques have been employed in transmissive LCD displays for another purpose, namely to increase viewing angle of such displays. In the provisional patent application by Joseph M. Jacobson filed on even date herewith, several in plane switching techniques may be employed to obviate the need for a top electrode. In one such system a dye material with an associated positive charge 491 and a pH or solvent substance with an associated negative charge 492 may be separated by means of an in plane electric field effected by means of application of a potential to in plane electrodes 495 and 496. Such a system is viewed from above and thus said electrodes may be opaque and do not effect the optical characteristics of said display.
- a bistable liquid crystal system of the type demonstrated by Minolta is modified to be effected by in plane electrodes such that a liquid crystal mixture transforms from a first transparent planar structure 497 to a second scattering focal conic structure 498.
- a near in-plane switching arrangement may be realized in which a two color microsphere 440 is encapsulated in an outer capsule 420 which sit in a hole created by a middle electrode 498. Applying a bias between said middle electrode 498 and a bottom electrode 497 causes said sphere to rotate as a function of the polarity of said bias.
- a field effect electrochromic contrast media may be realized by means of a microcapsule 420 containing phosphor particles 500 and photoconductive semiconductor particles and dye indicator particles 501 in a suitable binder 499. Applying an AC field to electrodes 495 and 496 causes AC electroluminescence which causes free charge to be generated in the semiconducting material further causing said dye indicator to change color state.
- an entirely different means may be employed to effect a rear address of said contrast media.
- the dielectrophoretic effect is employed in which a species of higher dielectric constant may be caused to move to a region of high electric field.
- a non-colored dye solvent complex, 503 which is stable when no field is applied across electrode pair 502 may be cause to dissociate into colored dye 504 and solvent 505 components by means of an electric field 506 effected by a potential on electrode pair 502.
- stacked electrode pairs 502 and 507 may be employed to effect a high field region in a higher 506, or lower, 508 plane thus causing a higher dielectric constant material such as one hemisphere of a bichromal microsphere, 440 or one species 483 of a mixture of colored species, 483 and 484 to migrate to a higher or lower plane, respectively, and give the effect of differing color states.
- materials 509 which may be dielectric materials or may be conducting materials may be employed to shape said electric fields. It is understood that any other electronically addressable contrast media may readily be substituted for those described above.

- Such a structure may act as an address control line switch as said gate 700 may substantially control the flow of current from said address input line 510 to said address output line 520.
- address input line 510 is isolated from address output line 520 by means of a stack including semiconducting polymer layers 750 and a switch control line 760 consisting of a camphor sulfonic acid protonated polyaniline (PANI-CSA) grid electrode filled with a semiconducting polymer.
