Abstract :
The HfC-coated Si field emitter arrays (FEA) integrated with poly-Si thin film transistors (TFT) was fabricated in this paper. The emission current was completely controlled by the build-in poly-Si TFT with lightly doped drain (LDD) structure and long channel. The switching voltage of the device is about 10 V, which is lower than that when modulating extraction gate voltage. The TFT integrated FEA is promising for uniform and low power consumption FED system. And furthermore, system on FED panel would be realized by applying current low temperature poly-Si TFT technology.
