Coatings for Spacers in Emission Displays

摘要

A resistive spacer coating for a carbon nanotube (CNT)/field emission device (FED) display is described. The resistive spacer coating reduces electrostatic charging of the spacer during operation of the display while maintaining the field potential between the cathode and the phosphor screen. The resistive coating includes one or more resistive materials which are combined with binders that are then applied to the spacer.
