ABSTRACT:
An improvement in a driving method for an optical modulation device having a plurality of picture elements arranged in N lines, each picture element including a pair of oppositely spaced electrodes, and an optical modulation material disposed therebetween and showing at least two stable states with respect to an electric field. A writing operation is carried out respectively for a plurality of blocks each comprising a plurality (n) of lines, the writing operation including: (a) a first step of applying such a voltage signal to picture elements arranged on the n lines as to provide the picture elements with a display state based on a first stable state of the optical modulation material, and (b) a second step of applying such a voltage signal to selected picture elements on the n lines line-by-line as to provide the selected picture elements with a display state based on a second stable state of the optical modulation material; wherein N and n are integers satisfying the relation of N>n.
