'Electronic paper (EP)' provides desirable viewing characteristics of paper with being thin, lightweight, flexible, and recordable with minimal power consumption. Currently, a number of different technologies to realize the EP are actively competing. Here we demonstrate a newly developed monolayer rotating ball (MRB) electronic paper display where optically anisotropic rotating balls were disposed in a monolayer, and controllably closely packed with respect to one another. The close packed monolayer configuration provides high brightness and improved contrast with better electrical and optical features in comparison with the typical (Gyrion) rotating ball display. In this talk, we present characteristics of the MRB display in terms of performance, with particular emphasis on the response time as a function of the electric field.

Optically anisotropic rotating balls were disposed in a monolayer, and controllably closely packed with respect to one another in the monolayer. The close packed monolayer configuration provided high brightness and improved contrast. The monolayer rotating ball display (MRB) electrically demonstrated a fast response time of approximately 40 msec at a voltage of 30 V. Measurements of the rotation as a function of voltage led to surface charge density for the balls in the range of 3-4 ${\mu}C/m^2$.
