Field emission lamp and method for making the same

Abstract

A field emission lamp includes a transparent glass tube, a cathode, and an anode. The anode and cathode are both disposed in the transparent glass tube. The cathode includes an electron emission layer. The anode includes a carbon nanotube transparent conductive film formed on an inner wall of the transparent glass tube and a fluorescent layer formed on the carbon nanotube transparent conductive film. A method for fabricating the above-described field emission lamp, includes the steps of: (a) providing a transparent glass tube including at least one conductive wire, a carbon nanotube transparent conductive film and a fluorescent layer formed on the inner wall thereof; and (b) providing an anode electrode, a cathode electrode, a cathode emitter sealed by feedthroughs in the glass tube to achieve the field emission lamp.
