Using microwave plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition, diamond films were successfully grown on Ti-coated glass substrates at temperatures as low as around 500$^{\circ}C$ in behalf of practical applications to field emitters. Electron emission was observed at turn-on fields below 18V-$\mu\textrm{m}$. Field emission characteristics of diamond films were discussed in terms of their crystalline qualities. diamond films with poorer crystalline qualities showed better field emission properties.

Amorphous silicon thin-film transistors (a-Si TFTs) were incorporated into Mo-tip-based triode-type field emitters and diode-type ones of carbon nanotubes for an active-matrix cathode (AMC) plate of field emission displays. Also, we developed a novel surface-treatment process for the Mo-tip fabrication, which gleatly enhanced in the stability of field emission. The field emission currents of AMC plates on glass substrate were well controlled by the gate bias of a-Si TFTs. Active-matrix field emission displays (AMFEDs) with these AMC plates were demonstrated in a vacuum chamber, showing low-voltage matrix addressing, good stability and reliability of field emission, and highly uniform light emissions from the anode plate with phosphors. The optimum design of AMFEDs including a-Si TFTs and a new light shield/focusing grid is discussed.

본 논문에서는 산화된 다공질 폴리실리콘을 이용하여 전계 방출 소자를 제작하여, 각각의 픽셀에 따른 전기적 특성과 형광체의 발광 특성을 조사하였다. 실제 대면적 디스플레이 소자에 적용하기 위해서 PM 방식을 이용해서 소자를 픽셀별로 동작하였고, 상부금속 전극의 어레이에 따른 두께와 폭의 공정조건을 확립하였다. 산화된 다공질 폴리실리콘의 미세 구조를 분석하고, 각각의 픽셀에 따른 전계방출 특성을 조사해 보았다. 상부금속 전극의 두께와 폭에 따른 전자방출 특성을 조사해 본 결과 Ti/pt(2nm/7nm)가 가장 적절한 두께라는 것을 확인 할 수 있었고, 2.5 mm 이상 폭에서 전자방출 효율이 증가하는 모습을 확인 할 수 있었다. 각 픽셀에 따른 소자의 전기적 특성은 픽셀마다 조금씩의 차이는 있지만 거의 동일한 누설 전류와 방출 전류가 나타남을 확인할 수 있었고, 동일한 크기의 효율도 관찰할 수 있었다. 누설 전류와 방출 전류는 시간이 증가함에 따라 감소하는 모습이 나타나긴 하였으나, 모든 픽셀이 거의 동일하게 감소하였다. 각각의 픽셀에 따른 휘도는 큰 차이가 없음을 확인할 수 있었고, 20 V에서 $700cd/m^2$ 이상의 높은 휘도를 나타내었으므로 실제 디스플레이 소자로도 응용이 가능할 것이다.

The influence of ambient gases on field emission performance of Mo-field emitter array(FEA) in the frit-sealing step of field emission display(FED) packaging process was investigated. Mo-tip FEA was mounted on the glass substrate having a surrounded frit(Ferro FX11-137) and fired at $415^{\circ}C$ in the ambient gases of air, $N_2$ and Ar. The Ar gas was proved to be most proper ambient among the used gases through evaluating the turn-on voltage and field emission current of the fired Mo-tip FEA devices. It was confirmed that the Mo surface fired in Ar ambient was less oxidized when compared with another ones annealed in air and Ar ambient by the AFM, XPS, AES and SIMS analysis. Finally, the 3.5 inch-sized Mo-tip FED, which was packaged using frit-sealing process in the Ar ambient, was proposed.

Field emission-back light unit (FE-BLU) was fabricated using carbon nanotube (CNT) emitter. Local dimming and local brightening techniques were achieved, which results in very high contrast ratio. In addition, the motion blur phenomenon, one of the serious problems of liquid crystal display (LCD) with cold cathode fluorescent lamp (CCFL)-BLU, was removed from LCD-TV by using FE-BLU.

Using micro-wells on the Mo substrate, we could obtain various tubular-volcano-types of free-standing diamond field emitters by depositing a diamond film detaching the film and turning the film upside down. The field emission characteristics of these structures were investigated as a function of size, shape and the number density of the tubular-volcano-type diamond field emitters. The field emission characteristics, especially the current density, were greatly enhanced with increasing the number density of the tubular-volcano-type diamond field emitters on the Mo substrate. Based on these results, we suggest that the reduction of the well size can give better field emission characteristics by the increase in the number density of the tubular-volcano-type diamond field emitters. Finally, we suggest the feasibility of fabricating a large-area field emission display using our patterned tubular-volcano-type free-standing diamond field emitters.

Tunneling current from filed emission display tips is calculated by numerical analysis using a finite element method software. For simple tip structures it is shown that the image charge method could provide an efficient way to estimate the tunneling current.
