Abstract

Electrophoretic display has recently stimulated tremendous interest due to potential commercialization in the filed of information displays including e-books, e-newspapers, and other low-power portable displays. A new transparent soft mold press (TSMP) process developed in this study was found to give a good electrophoretic display panel with prepatterned micropools for the filling of charged particle slurry. It was also found that charged $TiO_2$ particles with 74.09 mV of zeta potential and 3.11 ${\times}$ $10^{-5}$ $cm^2$/Vs of mobility were successfully prepared.
