Abstract: | Abstract— Using nano‐emissive display (NED) technology, Motorola labs has successfully developed 5‐in. full‐color display prototypes. Carbon‐nanotube‐based field‐emission displays with a pixel size of 0.726 mm for a 42‐in. HDTV exhibit video image quality comparable to CRT displays and demonstrate a luminance of 350 cd/m2. These novel low‐drive‐voltage NEDs take advantage of selective growth of CNTs to obtain the desired electron‐emission performance while maintaining inexpensive manufacturing due to a simple self‐focusing and self‐regulating planar structure. Improved video image quality and color purity are achieved with very low power consumption and without the need for an expensive focusing grid. |
