A display medium includes: a pair of substrates that have light transmittance; electrode members that are respectively formed on the opposing surfaces of the substrates, have light transmittance, and are capable of carrying an electric current; a display member that is interposed between the electrode members and displays display information when the electric current is supplied; a terminal portion provided at one electrode member; a reinforcing portion that has electrical conductivity and is joined to the terminal portion; and a mounted electrode that has electrical conductivity and is joined to the terminal portion by a joining material that has, after curing, a cohesive force larger than that of the reinforcing portion. The area of a reinforcing joining region of the terminal portion to which the reinforcing portion is joined is smaller than the area of a mounted joining region of the terminal portion to which the joining material is joined.

A cholesteric liquid crystal display capable of rewriting at a high speed is provided, which includes a cholesteric liquid crystal display element forming pixels at intersection portions of scan-electrodes of a scan-electrode group and data-electrodes of a data-electrode group, in which L-lines (L: integer lager than 2) of the scan-electrodes each of the scan-electrode group form a block. The drive circuit sequentially selects one block during one selection time, simultaneously applies coded drive voltages each corresponding to the L-lines of the scan-electrodes in the selected block, and applies coded data-voltages each corresponding to data-electrodes of the data-electrode group synchronously with the drive voltages.

A reflective-type multi-color display device is capable of obtaining a vivid and bright multi-color display with less display layers, and therefore, with a state where a parallax is decreased and a cost of the device can be reduced. Specifically, the display device of the present invention includes a cell 51 having a display layer 31 comprising a right-handed cholesteric liquid crystal which selects and reflects blue, a cell 53 having a display layer 33 comprising a left-handed cholesteric liquid crystal which selects and reflects green, a cell 57 having a display layer 37 comprising a right-handed cholesteric liquid crystal which selects and reflects yellow and a cell 55 having a display layer 35 comprising a left-handed cholesteric liquid crystal which selects and reflects red, these layers being laminated in this order from the observation side. A color filter 43 which transmits red and absorbs the other color light is provided between the cell 57 and the cell 55. A black light-absorbing layer 41 is formed at the back side of the cell 55.

A sputtering device for coating a substrate which enters the device downstream and exits the device upstream. The device includes a vacuum container having a gas exhausting portion; a gas providing portion for providing inactive gas and reactive gas into the vacuum container upstream of the gas exhausting portion; a target provided in the vacuum container between a gas inlet and the gas exhausting portion; a diffusion interval from the target to the gas inlet, the diffusion interval having a length at least as great as the shortest distance between the target and the substrate to be coated; substrate supporting structure for supporting the substrate so that the substrate faces the target; and a plasma producing portion to produce gas plasma near the substrate. The reactive gas uniformly diffuses with the inactive gas within the diffusion interval, is made to be a plasma state, and reacts with sputtering particles scattered from the target to form a uniform film on a surface of the substrate.

A display medium of the present invention includes first and second substrates, a spacing member and a particle dispersion liquid. The first substrate is transparent to light. The second substrate is opposite to the first substrate and has plural electrodes placed at an interval. The second substrate has a difference between reflectivity of the electrode portions and reflectivity of plural boundary portions between the electrodes with respect to light incident from the first substrate side. The difference is 12 percentage points or less. The spacing member is placed between the first and second substrates at another interval, is transparent to light, and keeps a gap between the first and second substrates. The particle dispersion liquid is filled between the first and second substrates, and includes particles moving in a direction of an electric field formed between the first and second substrates and a dispersion medium.
