    Field Emission Display

    Field emission displays (FEDs) use electron emission from tiny microtips to light pixels on a screen, similar to how cathode ray tubes work. Instead of a single electron gun, FEDs use millions of microtips as individual electron sources. FEDs offer advantages over other displays like higher brightness, faster response time, more compact size, lower driving voltage, and wider viewing angles. However, early FED prototypes suffered from issues like non-uniform brightness, low durability of the microtips under electrical arcing, and required high vacuum maintenance.

    PLAN OF
    PRESENTATION
    WHAT

    WHEN APPS.

    HOW ADV.

    CHARACTERISTICS
    FED
     FED is such a display that works a bit
    like a cathode-ray tube, except that
    electrons are emission procedure

     Instead of one cathode emission


    spraying of electron through number
    of hole is done
    HISTORY
     In 1968, Charles A. "Capp" Spindt at the
    Stanford Research Institute had the idea
    of fabricating a flat display using
    microscopic molybdenum cones singly or
    in arrays (FEA’s)
     This development was the enabling
    technology the concept for using FEA’s in
    a matrix addressed display (FED)
    Assembly of FED Device
    FED Principles
    Field emission displays,
    electrons coming from
    millions of tiny microtips
    pass through gates and
    light up pixels on a
    screen.

    This principle is similar


    to that of cathode-ray
    tubes in television sets.
    The difference: Instead
    of just one "gun"
    spraying electrons
    against the inside of the
    screens face, there are
    as many as 500 million
    of them
    .
    Cathode
    The cathode/back plate is
    a matrix of row and
    column traces. Each
    crossover lays the
    foundation for an
    addressable
    cathode emitters.

    Each crossover has up to


    4,500 emitters, 150 nm in
    diameter. This emitter
    density assures a high
    quality image through
    manufacturing
    redundancy, and long-life
    through low operational
    stress.
    Emission

    Emitters generate
    electrons when a
    small voltage is
    applied to both row
    (base layer) and
    column (top layer).
    FED PACKAGING
     The field emission display screens are
    comprised of a thin sandwich. In this
    the back is a sheet of glass or silicon
    that contains millions of tiny field
    emitters which is the cathode. The
    front is a sheet of glass coated with
    phosphor dots, which is the anode.
    FED CHARACTERISTICS
     Comparing with the CRT displays the
    field emission displays has many
    advantages.
     They are:
    1. Brightness

    2. Speed

    3. Compact and lightweight

    4. Display size

    5. Low driving voltage

    6. Wider viewing angle

    7. High illumination

    8. Colour Quality
    FED advantages
    Inherently high luminous efficiency Technology Luminous
     No Response Time issues
    Efficiency
    (Lm/W)
     CRT-like Colour Gamut
    CRT (at 3
     Lower Power Consumption 30KV)
     Cold Cathode Emission PDP 0.8
     Distance between cathode and screen
    ~0.2–5mm LCD 3
     Flat Panel Technology OLED / PLED 5
     Matrix Addressed – No DY FED at 8 KV 7
     Capital investment for
    manufacturing VLS TV with
    printable CNT FEDs - 1/10th of LCD
     Cost advantage over LCD could be
    40%
    APPLICATION

    This technology could produce


    affordable large displays in the 20
    to 40-inch diagonal range suitable
    for TVs.
    DRAWBACKS
    a. Vacuum tubes do require maintenance.
    b. Current FEDs often suffer from variation in
    screen brightness across the display, and also
    within each pixel.
    c. Durability due to electrical discharge in the small
    gaps everywhere in FED prototypes.
    d. The killing problem was durability: the tips could
    not survive under severe conditions of arcing
    (i.e. electrical discharge) due to the small gaps
    everywhere in FED prototypes.
