ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to methods for inspection of defects in an electrophoretic display and related devices. The method may be carried out with one or more testing electrodes. The method comprises applying a voltage difference to two testing electrodes which are in contact with the display panel, or applying a voltage difference to a testing electrode and a electrode layer. The methods may be applied in in-line or off-line inspection of a display panel.
