Abstract :
The authors have followed a unique path to a next-generation field emitting display (pFED) using an emitter formed from micron-sized graphite particles coated with a nanoscale silica insulator. The emitter is fully oxidised as part of the deposition process and so is immune to the sealing problems that plague CNTs. pFED improve with sealing.
