Patent ID: 8072674

Claim:
An electro-phoretic display, comprising: a first substrate; a plurality of pixel electrodes arranged in a matrix form on the first substrate; a plurality of electro-phoretic displaying units disposed on the pixel electrodes, each electro-phoretic displaying unit comprising a plurality of colored charged particles, wherein each pixel electrode corresponds to at least one of the electro-phoretic displaying units having the colored charged particles with the same color, wherein the colored charged particles are red, green or blue charged particles, and wherein each electro-phoretic displaying unit further comprises a plurality of black charged particles; a second substrate disposed above the electro-phoretic displaying units; a transparent electrode disposed on the second substrate and between the second substrate and the electro-phoretic displaying units; and a light-shielding layer having a plurality of openings filled with the transparent electrode, wherein each of the openings corresponds to one of the electro-phoretic displaying units.
