Abstract
An embodiment generally relates to a system for electronic paper. The system includes an electret substrate embedded with a plurality of charged capsules each capsule includes a plurality of charged pigment particles, where the electret substrate is charged opposite of the plurality of charged pigment particles. The system also includes a first electrode interfacing with one side of the electret substrate and a second electrode interfacing with the other side of the electret substrate. When a voltage is applied to the first and second electrodes, the plurality of charged pigment particles move in the direction of one of the first and second electrode with a polarity opposite to a charge of the plurality of the charged pigment particles.
