SEALING MATERIAL AND IMAGE DISPLAY USING SUCH SEALING MATERIAL

摘要

A flat image display device includes two substrates (11, 12) located opposite each other with a gap therebetween and a vacuum seal portion (33) which seals a predetermined position on the substrates and defines a sealed space. The vacuum seal portion (33) has a sealing layer (32) which is formed of a sealing material filled along the predetermined position. The sealing material having a melting point of 400°C or less and a rate of contraction during solidification ranging from +0.5% to -2.5%.
