Abstract
A system and method for an electrowetting display device are presented. The electrowetting display device includes a first support plate and a second support plate, A plurality of pixel walls associated with an electrowetting pixel are formed over the first support plate. A color filter is over the electrowetting pixel. The color filter allows propagation of visible light of a first color and prevents propagation of visible light of a second color. In an embodiment, the color filter includes a layer of light-absorbing photoresist that is patterned into a first plurality of regions and a second plurality of regions. Each region in the first plurality of regions has a first optical density and each region in the second plurality of regions has a second optical density so that the color filter has a non-uniform optical density.
