Abstract: A driving method for a bistable display device includes setting a first duration and a second duration according to a frame period; applying a first voltage to a light valve layer in the first duration according to display data, so as to transform the light valve layer from a first state to a second state; and applying a second voltage in the second duration to the light valve layer in the second duration for the light valve layer to transform to the first state. Since the light valve layer of the bistable display device is already at the first state prior to displaying the next image, the light valve layer is not required to reset when switching displayed images, hence reducing the total number of frames required to display each image.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing an array substrate is provided, wherein a data line is composed of first and second segments connected by a contact pad. First and second insulation layers are disposed between the first segment of the data line and a shielding electrode. In addition, the first insulation layer is disposed between the second segment of the data line and a gate line in their overlapping area. Accordingly, the coupling effect between the conductive layers can be reduced. For example, the RC delay problem due to parasitic capacitance between the shielding electrode and the data line is solved. As a result of the design of the two insulator layers between the first segment of the data line and the shielding electrode, the shorting between the conductive layers can also be simultaneously solved and the product yield can be increased.
