Field emission display panel having diode structure and method for fabricating
First Claim
1. A field emission display panel comprising:
- a first electrically insulating plate, a plurality of emitter stacks formed on said first electrically insulating plate, each of said emitter stacks being positioned parallel to a transverse direction of said first insulating plate and comprises a layer of a first electrically conductive material and a layer of nanotube emitter on top, a plurality of rib sections formed of an insulating material inbetween said plurality of emitter stacks providing electrical insulation thereinbetween, a second electrically insulating plate positioned over and spaced-apart from sad first electrically insulating plate having an inside surface facing said first plate, a layer of a second electrically conductive material on said inside surface of said second insulating plate, a multiplicity of strips of fluorescent powder coating on said second electrically conductive material each for emitting a red, green or blue light upon activation by electrons emitted from said plurality of emitter stacks, and a plurality of side panels joining peripheries of said first and second electrically insulating plates together forming a vacuum-tight cavity therein.

Abstract
The field emission display panel is constructed by a first glass plate that has a plurality of emitter stacks formed on a top surface, each of the emitter stacks is formed parallel to a transverse direction of the glass plate and includes a layer of electrically conductive material and a layer of nanotube emitter on top, the first glass plate further has a plurality of rib sections formed of an insulating material inbetween the plurality of emitter stacks to provide electrical insulation, a second glass plate that is positioned over and spaced-apart from the first glass plate wherein an inside surface of the second glass plate has coated thereon a layer of an electrically conductive material such as indium-tin-oxide on the inside surface, and a multiplicity of fluorescent powder coating strips formed on the ITO layer each for emitting a red, green or blue light when activated by electrons emitted from the plurality of emitter stacks. The field emission display panel is assembled together by a number of side panels that joins the peripheries of the first and the second glass plate together to form a vacuum-tight cavity therein. The nanotube emitters can be formed of nanometer dimensioned hollow tubes or fibers of carbon, diamond or diamond-like carbon material mixed with a binder.
