Method of fabricating emitter of field emission display

Abstract

A method of fabricating an emitter of a field emission display. A mixture of metal and silver paste with glass material is screen printed on a substrate as a silver electrode. The metal is selected from a hard solder alloy such as Al/Si alloy containing tin, zinc, aluminum or other low melting point metal. Alternatively, the metal and the silver paste with the glass material are separately screen printed on the substrate. The metal is selected from tin, zinc, aluminum, or an alloy with a low melting point such as aluminum/silicon alloy. A carbon nano-tube layer is formed on the silver electrode by coating the carbon nano-tube material with the electric arc. Alternately a catalyst layer can be formed on the silver electrode prior to the formation of the carbon nano-tube layer. A metal layer such as nickel and copper is formed on the carbon nano-tube layer to prevent the carbon nano-tube layer from absorbing gas.
