Yeah…I believed in the future, we won’t be collecting newspaper anymore as the electronic paper is getting more improvement. Today, Epson has unveiled their new 13.4-inch (A4-size) electronic paper at SID 2008, in Los Angeles, the US. It features 3104 × 4128 pixels and definition as high as 385ppi. It was developed by combining the electrophoretic electronic ink of E Ink Corp and a low-temperature polycrystal Si-TFT of Seiko Epson. The TFT was formed on a glass substrate and its contrast ratio is 10:1 and reflectance is 40%. With this prototype, Seiko Epson considers that the company entered the final stage of replacing traditional papers with electronic paper. Epson plan to do a market research and considering of selling these electronics papers in the future.
