Abstract
A display device includes a display layer provided with a cell in which first particles, second particles, and third particle with colors different to each other are contained, a front side electrode provided on the front side of the display layer, and a first and second back side electrodes provided corresponding to the cell on the back side of the display layer. The first particles are charged. The second particles have a color in a complementary color relation to that of the first particles, are charged with the opposite polarity to that of the first particles, and have a smaller amount of charge than that of the first particles. In the display device, a part where the first particles and the second particles are disproportionately located is set with the third particles dispersed in the cell, to change a color in the cell viewed from the front side electrode side.
