Patent number: 11195481Abstract: An electrophoretic display comprising a fluid including a first species of particles and a charge control agent disposed between first and second electrodes. When a first addressing impulse have an electrical polarity is applied to the medium, the first species of particles move in one direction relative to the electric field, but when a second addressing impulse, larger than the first addressing impulse but having the same electrical polarity, is applied to the medium, the first species of particles move in the opposed direction relative to the electric field.Type: GrantFiled: September 27, 2019Date of Patent: December 7, 2021Assignee: E Ink CorporationInventors: Stephen J. Telfer, Stephen Bull, Alain Bouchard, Craig A. Herb, Kosta Ladavac, Ana L. Lattes, Jennifer M. Morrison, Richard J. Paolini, Jr., Michael Thomas Regan, Luke M. Slominski, Lee Yezek, Kenneth R.
