20120170127 | REFLECTIVE DISPLAY DEVICE - Various reflective display devices are provided. In one embodiment, a reflective display device is provided that includes a first controllable light absorption layer capable of absorbing incident light in a first specified wavelength band and at least a second specified wavelength band and a first reflector behind the first absorption layer, which is capable of selectively reflecting at least some wavelengths of light within the first and second specified wavelength bands and substantially transmit light of other wavelengths. The reflective display device further includes a second controllable light absorption layer behind the selective reflector, which is capable of absorbing incident light in at least a third specified wavelength band and a second reflector behind the second layer, which is capable of reflecting at least some wavelengths of light within the third specified wavelength band. | 07-05-2012 |
20120176301 | DISPLAY DEVICE - A display device includes a plurality of pixel components, each of which includes a first electro-optic layer positioned between a first pair of electrodes, in which the first electro-optic layer is configured to selectively absorb light in a first specified wavelength, a second electro-optic layer positioned between a second pair of electrodes, in which the second electro-optic layer is configured to selectively absorb light in a second specified wavelength band and to convert the absorbed light to at least a portion of the first specified wavelength band, in which the first electro-optic layer and the second electro-optic layer are arranged in a stack with respect to each other. | 07-12-2012 |
20120194934 | REFLECTIVE DISPLAY DEVICE - A reflective display device includes a first absorption layer configured to be modulated between being strongly and weakly absorbing of light within a first specified wavelength band and to absorb light weakly in a second specified wavelength band and a third specified wavelength band, a second absorption layer configured to be modulated between being strongly and weakly absorbing of light within the second specified wavelength band and to absorb light weakly within the third specified wavelength band, a third absorption layer configured to be modulated between being strongly and weakly absorbing of light within at least the third specified wavelength band, and at least one reflector arranged between two of the first, second, and third absorption layers, the at least one reflector being configured to reflect light strongly within one of the specified wavelength bands assigned to the absorption layers above the at least one reflector. | 08-02-2012 |
