59.2: Invited Paper: Development of CNT-FED by Printing Method

4″ to 20″ carbon nanotube field emission display (CNT-FED) and back light unit (CNT-BLU) have been fabricated by printing method. The gated arrays of cathode plates were fabricated by screen printing and photolithography processes. Taiwanese research results on FEDs are also described.

24.4: Planar Triode Structure Carbon Nanotubes Field Emission Display

A new planar triode structure of CNT-FED has been fabricated. The gate electrode and the CNTs emitters were almost on the same plane. The gate pulls out the electrons from the both side CNTs emitters. The electron beam would be focus on the top of the gate electrode.

P‐46: Color Carbon Nanotube Field Emission Display

A 10-inch, 240 ×320 pixels, triode structure color carbon nanotube field emission display (CNT-FED) was fabricated after screen printing, photolithography and vacuum sealing process. The new normal on driving method was applied in triode CNT-FED, and the resolution was improved better than normal off FED.

7.3: Novel Structure of Carbon Nanotubes Backlight Unit

A novel structure of carbon nanotubes backlight unit (CNT-BLU) was introduced to improve the uniformity. From the calculation and experimental verification, large improvement on uniformity can be observed. Benefiting from these important results, the new planar backlight technology has chances to proceed to mass production and reduce the cost of optical films such as diffuser and/or brightness enhancement film. Based on the structure, the printed CNT-BLU has the potential to replace traditional backlight technology because of its good properties like the simple processes, easy to large scale, low surface Temp and Hg-free…etc.
