28.4: Matrix Flat‐Panel Application of Ballistic Electron Surface‐Emitting Display

Abstract

Abstract Ballistic electron Surface‐emitting cold cathode based on porous polysilicon exhibits excellent performance as a novel flat panel display. It is demonstrated that emission current is stable up to an ambient pressure of 10 Pa. 53(RGB) × 40 pixels multicolour matrix panel is fabricated and evaluated its performance. Fabricating process is mainly based on conventional silicon process and anodisation process, for which we can expect lower production cost at larger panel fabrication.
