Patent ID: 8467119

Claim:
An electrochromic display device, comprising: a first substrate; at least one first electrode which is provided on a top surface of the first substrate; a second substrate which is provided above the first substrate so as to be opposite to the first substrate, and which second substrate is formed of a transparent material; at least one second electrode which is provided on an under surface of the second substrate, and at least part of which second electrode is formed of a transparent material; and an electrochromic composition layer which is provided between the first substrate and the second substrate, wherein the electrochromic display device is a passive-matrix driven electrochromic display device which performs a display by energization between the first electrode and the second electrode, and performs erasing of the display by energization between the first electrode and the second electrode in a reverse direction to the energization for the display, the at least one first electrode is a plurality of electrodes which extend in parallel with one another, the at least one second electrode is a plurality of transparent display electrodes which extend in parallel with one another in a direction orthogonal to the first electrodes, and each of the second electrodes is divided into a plurality of regions each of which intersects with the first electrodes, a pixel is formed in a portion where the first electrodes sterically intersect with the second electrodes, and a plurality of metal electrical wires which extend over the regions are provided between the second electrodes and the second substrate in a direction along the second electrodes, each of which metal electrical wires is conductively connected to each of the second electrodes corresponding to any one of the regions, and insulated from each of the second electrodes corresponding to the other regions.
