Abstract

Zinc gallate-based RGB phosphors and vertically aligned carbon nanotube emitters are prepared for flat field-emission lamp. The blend phosphors of blue $ZnGa_2O_4$, green $ZnGa_2O_4:Mn^{2+}$ and red $ZnGa_2O_4:Cr^{3+}$ are coated on the front glass, and the carbon nanotubes are chemically bonded on the rear ITO glass as a cathode.
