Patent ID: 7279709

Claim:
An electronic ink display device, comprising: a thin film transistor array substrate, comprising: a first substrate; a first metal layer, disposed over the first substrate, comprising: a plurality of scan lines; a plurality of gates electrically connected to the respective scan lines; and a first peripheral circuit pattern; a dielectric layer, disposed over the first substrate, covering the first metal layer, and including a plurality of third openings; a second metal layer, disposed over the dielectric layer, comprising: a plurality of data lines dividing the first substrate into a plurality of pixel areas together with the scan lines, wherein the gates are located within the pixel areas; a plurality of sources/drains, disposed inside the pixel areas such that the sources are electrically connected to the data lines, wherein the sources/drains partially overlap over the respective gates; and a second peripheral circuit pattern, partially overlapped with the first peripheral circuit pattern and electrically connected to the first peripheral circuit pattern through the plurality of third openings; a channel layer, disposed over the dielectric layer between the gates and the sources/drains; a plurality of pixel electrodes, disposed inside the pixel areas and electrically connected to the respective drains; a frontplane laminate, disposed over one side of the thin film transistor array substrate, the frontplane laminate includes: a second substrate; a transparent electrode layer, disposed over the second substrate; and an electronic ink material layer, disposed between the transparent electrode layer and the thin film transistor array substrate.
