8.1 Introduction

The idea behind electronic paper (e‐paper) is to store and display information on a paper‐like carrier with ultra‐low or zero power consumption during the non‐updating period. Flexibility, readability, and multi‐functionality are the main expectations for e‐paper [13]. In particular, electrophoretic displays (EPDs), in which charged particles are electrically controlled, are the most widely used technology for e‐paper, with applications in e‐readers, shelf labels, and so forth [47]. However, with liquid crystal displays (LCDs) dominating the flat panel display market for decades, several liquid crystal (LC)‐based candidates have also been developed for e‐paper, the most mature being cholesteric LCDs [811], zenithal bistable devices (ZBDs) [1214] and bistable nematic (BiNem) displays [1518]. Generally, the power consumption of traditional LCDs is related to the driving frequency, and the applied voltage on individual pixels must be maintained even for a steady image. However, similar to EPDs' inherent behavior of bistability, LC e‐paper ...
