22.1: <i>Invited Paper</i> : High‐Luminance Carbon Nanotube FED

Abstract

Abstract An excellent performance of carbon‐nanotubes as field‐emitters was demonstrated using a high‐voltage FED elements at SID in 1998 where a light‐source tube for outdoor large size display and diode type flat panel were presented with the screen printed nanotube cathode. After that, a triode type paper which describes an x‐y addressable high‐luminance FED panel was introduced at IDRC in 1999. The experimental panel was performed ca.7×105 cd/m 2 green light at 6kV, ca.1mA/cm 2 dc‐driving condition.[2] The results show the excellent performance of carbon nanotube FED as flat panel displays which are applicable to large size TV devices. This panel will be not only suitable for future TV display but also light‐sources for field sequential color LCDs.
