42.4: Full-Color Reflective LCD Using Internal-Reflection Inverted-Scattering (IRIS) Mode

摘要

Reflective color displays are desired for battery driven information tools, PDAs, PCs and cell phones etc. Some papers have been presented regarding the reflective color LCDs, for instance guest-host mode and OCB mode. They, however, still do not have sufficient color representation capability compared to ordinary transmissive LCDs. In this paper, we will describe a full color reflective display that improves the limited capability, incorporating a Metal-Insulator-Metal (MIM) active matrix and a newly developed IRIS (Internal Reflection Inverted Scattering) mode with no polarizer.
