Abstract:
An optical micro-electro-mechanical system (MEMS) switch is disclosed. In a preferred embodiment the optical MEMS switch is used as an M .times. N optical signal switching system. The optical MEMS switch comprises a plurali ty of optical waveguides formed on a cantilever beam platform for switching optica l states wherein the state of the optical switch is changed by a system of drive and latch actuators. The optical MEMS device utilizes a latching mechanism in association with a thermal drive actuator for aligning the cantilever beam platform. In use the optical MEMS device may be integrated with other optical components to form planar light circuits (PLCs). When switches and PLCs are integrated together on a silicon chip, compact higher functionality devices, such as Reconfigurable Optical A dd- Drop Multiplexers (ROADMs), may be fabricated.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method and system for producing an electronic paper display, in particular, a multi-color electrophoretic display, with higher efficiency and higher reliability. SOLUTION: A plurality of microcapsules each comprising a display toner and a transparent shell enveloping the same are prepared and electrostatically charged. A suspension of white dye particles and non-white (R, G, B, K) dye particles in a substantially clear fluid may be used as the display toner. A display layer comprising microcapsules is formed on a substrate 102 by depositing the plurality of microcapsules by attraction to the electrostatic charge, and an electrode layer 110b is positioned in contact with or in proximity to the substrate 102 so that the substrate 102 is located between the display layer and the electrode layer 110b. Thus, a display 100 is obtained in which when an electric field is applied to the display layer with the electrode layer 110b, the dye particles within each microcapsule move within the microcapsule.
