Abstract
An image display apparatus includes an image display portion formed of a pair of substrates disposed opposite to each other and having a peripheral edge sealed in order to form a sealed gap, and an insulating liquid and a plurality of coloring charged particles disposed in the sealed gap. The image display apparatus controls positions of the coloring charged particles and displays an image. The apparatus includes a movable sheet member disposed to be movable in the gap between the pair of substrates, a writing unit arranged outside the image display portion, and a unit for moving the movable sheet member and writing unit in a direction substantially parallel to the substrates and in a second direction substantially perpendicular to the first direction.
