摘要:
An electrochromic display device is characterized by comprising a counter electrode, opposed to a plurality of display segmented electrodes, for absorbing a charge present in some colored display segments. Thereafter, the counter electrode provides a refreshing charge to said some segments from which charge has been taken off. A total amount of charge, defined as the amount of charge necessary for coloring all the display electrodes, is kept constant by refreshing.

摘要:
A porous separator used for an electrochromic display cell is treated by lyophilic methods so as to be impregnated by an electrolyte. The lyophilic treatment makes it possible to assure that the electrolyte is well impregnated into the porous separator. An angle of contact between the porous film and the electrolyte is selected within an amount less than 20 degrees. A cavity is introduced into the electrochromic display cell, which does not contain the electrolyte therein for the absorption of the cubic expansion of the electrolyte.
摘要:
A transparent electrode is formed on a transparent substrate in a desired configuration. An electrochromic layer is formed on the entire surface of the transparent substrate inclusive of the surface of the transparent electrode. The electrochromic layer is initially placed in the coloration state. A back layer which exhibits color sensation different from that of the coloration state of the electrochromic layer is disposed above the electrochromic layer. A desired electrode is selected to bleach the electrochromic layer formed thereon, through which the back layer is recognized, thereby displaying a desired pattern in the negative type.
摘要:
A first transparent conductive film is formed on a glass substrate. A second transparent conductive film is formed on the first transparent conductive film with intervention of a protective insulation film. The second transparent conductive film is electrically connected to the first transparent conductive film directly or through pin holes formed in the protective insulation film. An inorganic solid film which manifests the electrochromic phenomenon is formed on the second transparent conductive film.
摘要:
An electrochromic display cell comprising a display electrode coated with a WO.sub.3 film, and an electrolyte disposed in the electrochromic display cell as an ion source. The electrolyte comprises .gamma.-Butyrolactone mixed with LiClO.sub.4, NaClO.sub.4 or LiBF.sub.4. The WO.sub.3 film is formed on the display electrode under the condition where the substrate is heated up to 250.degree. C. through 400.degree. C.
摘要:
An electrochromic display comprising a display electrode and a counter electrode which form a cavity therebetween like a sandwich, the former consisting of a transparent conductive coating and a layer of transition metal oxide which varies reversibly in the light absorption spectrum upon application of current and the latter consisting of a conductive coating and a reversible charge exchange system. An electrolyte is injected into the cavity. A porous ceramics plate is positioned in contact with the display electrode and the counter electrode. This application is a continuation of copending application Ser. No. 760,521, filed on Jan. 19, 1977, now abandoned.
