Abstract:Abstrocf-A new reflectivedisplay principle is described. A roughened glass surface wetted with a transparent volatile liquid of the same refractive index as the glass acts as a transparent medium. The electrical heating, via transparent electrodes, of a thin 6lm of liquid adjacent to the roughened surface transforms the glass into a light scattering surface. The fundamental thermal, electrical, and optical characteristics of the display element are reported. Schemes are desmied for building simply constructed … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
