Abstract

Abstract An electrochromic display device comprising a transparent substrate and a counter substrate sealingly joined together to define a cell for accommodating an electrolyte, a transparent electroconductive layer on an inner surface of the transparent substrate, a display electrode layer overlaying the transparent electroconductive layer and a counter electrode layer deposited on an inner surface of the counter substrate is featured by the provision of a transparent insulating layer between the transparent substrate and the transparent electroconductive layer.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 2
Claim 1
Independent Claim 116 words
An electrochromic display device comprising a transparent substrate and a counter substrate sealingly joined together to define a cell therebetween; a transparent electroconductive layer arranged in a predetermined pattern on a surface of the transparent substrate facing the counter substrate; a display electrode layer overlaying said electroconductive layer and made of a material capable of exhibiting an electrochromic phenomenon; a counter electrode layer deposited on said counter substrate and facing said transparent substrate; an electrolyte filled in the cell; and transparent insulating layer means for improving display definition and contrast positioned between said transparent substrate and said transparent electroconductive layer said transparent insulating layer being comprised of silicon oxide and being about 1000 Å in thickness.
