Tiivistelmä
Large area flexible displays have many applications in information displays, decorative elements, and adaptive camouflage. Reflective displays, which change the actual surface color, have some advantages over emissive displays: they do not need the energy to emit light, they adapt automatically to the ambient lighting, and have a broad spectrum. Thermochromic materials can be used to implement flexible large-area low-resolution displays. We have demonstrated a reflective thermochromic display structure with 5cm x 5cm pixels fabricated on a thin Kapton foil using screen-printed heating elements, spray-coated thermochromic paint layers with controlled layer thicknesses, and copper traces for power delivery. The total thickness of the surface is under 200 μm.
