Abstract:
1. A transflective electro-wetting display device, comprising: an upper substrate; a lower substrate opposite to the upper substrate; a first polar liquid disposed between the upper and lower substrates; a second, colored, non-polar liquid disposed between the upper and lower substrates, and the second liquid being immiscible with the first liquid; a plurality of pixel units, each pixel unit defining a storage region for containing the second liquid, an area of the lower substrate covered by the second liquid being adjusted via controlling the second liquid to concentrate in the storage region; and a reflective pattern disposed at the lower substrate, the reflective pattern comprising a plurality of reflective members, each reflective member corresponding to each pixel unit, and each reflective member extending from the storage region of the pixel unit to another side of the pixel unit opposite to the storage region; wherein each pixel unit has a rectangular shape; each storage region is disposed at a corner of each pixel unit; each reflective member has a rhombic shape; and a diagonal of each reflective member overlaps a diagonal of each pixel unit crossing each storage region.
