Conclusion
E-Paper is also called Electronic Paper or Electronic ink
Display.
The first E-Paper was developed in 1974’s by “Nicholas K
Sheridon” at Xerox’s Palo Alto Research Centre.
It is a display unit.
E-Paper is flexible.
E-paper have a wide viewing angle.
A digital pen is also used to create handwritten document.
Developed in the 1970’s by Nick Sheridon at Xerox's Palo
Alto Research Center.
The first electronic paper was called Gyricon.
At the FPD 2008 exhibition, Japanese company Soken
demonstrated a wall with electronic wall-paper using this
technology.
Random example:
USB flash drive with
E Ink-implemented
capacity meter of available
flash memory.
▪ Gyricon
▪ Electrophoretic display
▪ Electrowetting
▪ Electrofluidic display
Once migration occurs under either polarity and the voltage is removed, the
white particles stay in place, creating a bistable memory device.
▪ Based on the phenomenon of Electrowetting effect-
controlling the shape of a confined water/oil interface by an
applied voltage.
▪ With no voltage applied, the (coloured) oil forms a flat film
between the water and a hydrophobic (water-repellent)
insulating coating of an electrode, resulting in a coloured pixel.
▪ When a voltage is applied between the electrode and the
water, the interfacial tension between the water and the coating
changes. As a result the stacked state is no longer stable,
causing the water to move the oil aside.
▪ This results in a partly transparent pixel, or, if a reflective
white surface is used under the switchable element, a white
pixel.
Electrofluidic displays are a variation of an electrowetting display.
Mobile display
Computer monitor
Researches found that in just few years this
technology can replace paper in many situations,
leading us to think of a truly paperless world.
