Mercury-heating device and method of manufacturing the same

摘要

A mercury-heating device is provided. The device is disposed on a substrate of a planar light source. The heating device includes a patterned electrode and a container. The patterned electrode is formed on the substrate and coupled to an external power source. The container, which covers over the patterned electrode, is a dielectric layer formed on the substrate. The container is used for containing mercury alloy or liquid mercury.
