ABSTRACT:
There is disclosed an electrocapillary display sheet which utilizes three transparent sheets being spaced from each other and placed parallel to each other. The medial sheet has a plurality of reservoirs which are filled with a dyed or pigmented ink. Each of the reservoirs has an individually addressable voltage source to create an individual electric field. By activating each electric field, the ink from the corresponding reservoir flows out into the space between the medial sheet and one of the other two sheets in order to create a pixel. By removing the electric filed, the liquid which had created a pixel will retreat back into the reservoir.
