COLOUR ELECTROCHROMIC DISPLAY - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240045297 titled 'COLOUR ELECTROCHROMIC DISPLAY

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an electrochromic fixed image display and a method for manufacturing the display. The display is capable of displaying a predetermined symbol and consists of several layers.

  • The display includes a color layer that provides a resulting color contrast when comparing its on-state and off-state.
  • Behind the color layer, there is a first electrochromic electrode layer arranged in the viewing direction.
  • A symbol defining layer, which is electronically and ionically insulating, is positioned behind the first electrode layer. This layer contains at least one opening that defines the shape of the predetermined symbol.
  • Behind the symbol defining layer, there is an electrolyte layer that fills and covers the opening of the symbol defining layer.
  • Lastly, a counter electrode layer, made of an electronically conductive material, is arranged behind the electrolyte layer. The electrolyte layer is in ionic contact with both the first electrode layer and the counter electrode layer.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Electronic displays in various industries such as automotive, aerospace, and consumer electronics.
  • Signage and advertising displays.
  • Information displays in public spaces like airports, train stations, and shopping malls.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Provides a fixed image display that can display a predetermined symbol with color contrast.
  • Offers a simplified manufacturing method for such displays.
  • Enables the creation of visually appealing and customizable displays.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Enhanced visual experience with color contrast in the displayed symbol.
  • Versatile and customizable displays for different applications.
  • Efficient manufacturing process for producing the electrochromic fixed image displays.


Original Abstract Submitted

there is provided an electrochromic fixed image display and a method for manufacturing the display. the electrochromic fixed image display for displaying a predetermined symbol comprising a stack of layers of: a colour layer which is configured to provide a resulting colour contrast to the display when comparing its on-state and off-state; a first electrochromic electrode layer arranged behind said colour layer in a viewing direction; an electronically and ionically insulating symbol defining layer, arranged behind the first electrode layer, which comprises at least one opening defining the shape the predetermined symbol; an electrolyte, arranged behind the symbol defining layer, which fills and covers the opening of said symbol defining layer; and a counter electrode layer, arranged behind the electrolyte layer, comprising an electronically conductive material, wherein the electrolyte layer is in ionic contact with the first electrode layer and the counter electrode layer.
