Dynamic foil display having low resistivity electrodes
First Claim
1. A foil display (900) comprising a light guide plate (905);
- a passive plate (910);
a transparent light-scattering foil (903) sandwiched between and separated from said plates by means of spacer elements (920, 904), said spacer elements being arranged essentially along rows and columns on said plates and thereby defining a plurality of pixel elements arranged in a matrix configuration along said rows and columns;
an electrode circuitry comprising a transparent foil electrode (907) arranged laterally on said foil and transparent row and column electrodes (901, 911) arranged along said rows and columns on said light guide and passive plates;
characterized in that said spacer elements are electrically conducting and interconnected with said electrodes and thus form part of said electrode circuitry.

Abstract
A dynamic foil display 900 is provided wherein the spacer elements 902, 904 also serve as resistance-reducing tracks for the electrode circuitry. Resistance-reduction can thereby be provided for the row and column electrodes as well as for the foil electrode. To this end a foil display 900 comprises a light guide plate 905; a passive plate 910; and a transparent light-scattering foil 903 sandwiched between and separated from said plates by means of spacer elements 902, 904 is described. The spacer elements 902, 904 are arranged essentially along rows and columns on said plates 905, 910 and thereby define a plurality of pixel elements arranged in a matrix configuration along said rows and columns. The display further comprises an electrode circuitry which comprises a transparent foil electrode 907 arranged laterally on said foil and transparent row and column electrodes 901, 911 arranged along said rows and columns on said light guide and passive plates; and the spacer elements 902, 904 are electrically conducting and interconnected with said electrodes 907, 911, 901 and thus form part of said electrode circuitry.
