Abstract

The cost effective structures and materials for the carbon nanotube (CNT) back light unit (BLU) are proposed. Simplified device structures and related electron emitter materials are prepared. CNT emitters were screen printed or remotely mounted on the back plate, and this enabled less than two photo patterning steps. Besides the cost benefits, operating voltage was dramatically decreased and higher current density was obtained
