An electrophoretic display device includes a pair of substrates arranged with a predetermined gap maintained therebetween, a dispersing fluid disposed between the pair of substrates, a plurality of charged particles mixed in the dispersing fluid, at least a pair of display electrodes arranged on one of the substrates and defining a pixel, and a guard electrode arranged in a border between adjacent pixels. The guard electrode limits the movement of the charged particles to within a single pixel when the guard electrode is biased at a potential higher than (lower than) each of the display electrodes of the two adjacent pixels with the border arranged therebetween if the particles are positively (negatively) charged.
