Abstract

A solution for carbon nanotube based field emission displays has been designed and built. The solution makes use of structure layout to control electron beam trajectories, uniformity by use of ballasting, emission anomalies eliminated by selective carbon nanotube growth and invisible spacers to maintain the vacuum gap.
