DISPLAY ELEMENT AND ELECTRIC DEVICE USING SAME

摘要

A display element (10) includes an upper substrate (first substrate) (2), a lower substrate (second substrate) (3), and a conductive liquid (16) that is sealed in a display space (S) formed between the upper substrate (2) and the lower substrate (3) so as to be moved toward an affective display region (P1) or a non-effective display region (P2). A reference electrode (5) and a scanning electrode (6) are provided on the lower substrate (3) so as to be located on one and the other of the effective display region (P1) side and the non-effective display region (P2) side, respectively. An end portion of the reference electrode (5) that is opposite to a moving direction of the conductive liquid (16) relative to the reference electrode (5) and an end portion of the scanning electrode (6) that is opposite to a moving direction of the conductive liquid (16) relative to the scanning electrode (6) are cut.
