Abstract

The present invention is directed to methods of passively driving an electrophoretic display. The electrophoretic fluid comprises three types of particles wherein two types particles are charged pigment particles having opposite charge polarities and contrasting colors. The third type of particle is larger in diameter than the first and second types of particles, and is less charged than the first and second types of particles, i.e., the third particle type is substantially uncharged. The electrophoretic medium is driven with two sets of electrodes, each set comprising a number of addressable electrodes.
