Abstract

A diffusing display screen resulting from the combination of a cell comprising a polymer dispersed liquid crystal material which can be made diffusing, and of a cell comprising an electrochromic material which can be made absorbing and reflecting. Outside the operating mode, the display screen according to the invention has the advantage of being transparent, and thus capable of being fixed onto any surface (window, wall, etc.).
