1. A process for producing a color electro-optic display, the process comprising:
- providing an electro-optic sub-assembly comprising an electro-optic layer and a light-transmissive electrically-conductive layer;
laminating the electro-optic sub-assembly to a backplane comprising a plurality of electrodes such that the electro-optic layer is disposed between the backplane and the electrically-conductive layer;
disposing a flowable material over the electrically-conductive layer; and
disposing a color filter array over the electrically-conductive layer and aligning the color filter array with the electrodes of the backplane to form the color electro-optic display, wherein the material is a non-curable material which remains unchanged in the final display, and after alignment of the color filter array, dispensing a curable polymer around the periphery of the electro-optic layer and color filter array, and curing this polymer to form an edge seal which secures the electro-optic layer and color filter array to each other.

Abstract
A process for producing a color electro-optic display uses an electro-optic sub-assembly comprising an electro-optic layer and a light-transmissive electrically-conductive layer. This sub-assembly is laminated to a backplane comprising a plurality of electrodes with the electro-optic layer disposed between the backplane and the electrically-conductive layer. A flowable material is placed over the sub-assembly and a color filter array is placed over the electrically-conductive layer and aligned with the electrodes of the backplane to form the color electro-optic display.
