Abstract

A 50% reduction of operation voltage improvement was achieved on a non self-emissive color filter pixels based on MEMS (micro electro mechanical system) Fabry-Perot interference device by minimizing its Newton's rings' size. Newly designed air grooves in spacer layer were proved to be efficient to evacuate air trapped inside pixels which in turn effectively lowered its operation voltage. A seesaw effect was also found if air groove occupied too large area which degrades the operation voltage lowering benefit.
