Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure include a method of fabricating interferometric devices using lift-off processing techniques. Use of lift-off processing in the fabrication of various layers of interferometric modulators, such as an optical stack or a flex layer, advantageously avoids individualized chemistries associated with the plurality of materials associated with each layer thereof. Moreover, use of lift-off processing allows much greater selection in both materials and facilities available for fabrication of interferometric modulators.

Abstract: A field-sequential color architecture is included in a reflective mode display. The reflective mode display may be a direct-view display such as an interferometric modulator display. In some implementations, the reflective mode display may include three or more different subpixel types, each of which corresponds to a color. In some such implementations, the colors include primary colors. Data for each color may be written sequentially to subpixels for that color, while subpixels of the remaining colors are written to black. Alternatively, data for each color may be written sequentially to all subpixels of the display. Flashing of a corresponding colored light, e.g., from a front light of the display, may be timed to immediately follow a process of writing data for that color.

Abstract: A method of driving electromechanical devices such as interferometric modulators includes applying a voltage along a common line to release the electromechanical devices along the common line, followed by applying an address voltage along the common line to actuate selected electromechanical devices along the common line based on voltages applied along segment lines. Hold voltages may be applied along common lines between applications of release and address voltages, and the segment voltages may be selected to be sufficiently small that the segment voltages will not affect the state of the electromechanical devices along other common lines not being written to.

Abstract: A microelectromechanical systems device (730) having a transparent substrate (710) joined to a planar backplate (720) with a raised perimeter structure (740a) forming a recessed cavity or cell (780). The raised perimeter structure (740a) is formed by applying a first layer (740a) around the peripheral area of the backplate (720) to form a recessed cell (780). A second layer (740b) is applied over the first layer. The first layer (740a) is thicker than the second layer (740b). The thicker layer (740a) comprises a viscous material. A second layer (740b) is a thinner adhesive layer, and is applied over the thicker layer (740a) to join the backplate (720) to the transparent substrate (710) to encapsulate the microelectromechanical systems device (730) formed on the transparent substrate (710).
