The detailed description of being done can make the present invention obtain more complete understanding in conjunction with the drawings, while also can make many other advantages of the present invention become more obvious and can be better understood, label identical in the accompanying drawing is in order to represent same or analogous parts, wherein:
Fig. 1 is the part sectioned view according to the flat-panel monitor of the embodiment of the invention;
Fig. 2 to Fig. 5 shows the manufacturing step according to the used cathode assembly of flat-panel monitor of the embodiment of the invention;
Fig. 6 to Fig. 9 shows the manufacturing step according to the used anode assemblies of flat-panel monitor of this bright embodiment;
Figure 10 is the crystal structure of graphite schematic diagram.
With reference to the accompanying drawings the preferred embodiments of the present invention are made an explanation.
For the sake of clarity, the cathode assembly with the flat-panel monitor of the present invention shown in Fig. 1 partly turns over 90 degree.As shown in Figure 1, flat-panel monitor comprises that one is formed on field emissive cathode on first substrate of glass 1, and a light emission anode that is formed on second substrate of glass 3.First and second substrates are parallel to each other and a preset space length setting at interval.
At first one cathode assembly manufacture process is described with reference to Fig. 2 to Fig. 4.
At first, as shown in Figure 2, a plurality of conducting shells 5 carry out etching and a plurality of conducting shells 5 are formed in first substrate 1 linearly by screen seal or spraying plating layer of metal silver and to it.
Then, as shown in Figure 3, in first substrate 1, form a plurality of dielectric layers 7 by shielding seal or spraying plating one deck glass thereon linearly.Each dielectric medium 7 is inserted between the adjacent parallel conducting shell 5.
At last, as shown in Figure 4, by screen seal one deck graphite in first substrate 1 and heat-treat and on conducting shell 5, form a plurality of field emission layers 9 linearly, thereby finish the cathode assembly manufacture process.
Simultaneously, in this embodiment, graphite particle is used to emitting electrons under the electric field action that is applied.As shown in figure 10, graphite has anisotropic structure, also, is being strong dual link structure aspect (0001) crystal face, and a little less than vertical direction is Van der Waals syndeton.Therefore, graphite material has favorable conductive/heat conductivility and in vertical direction conductibility is poor in (0001) crystal plane direction.Graphite particle has a plurality of such (0001) crystal faces, and the sharp edge on this surface can be used as natural field emission end.
Under the contrast, be used to the diamond that field emission is used, when (111) crystal face is coated with boron or nitrogen, on this crystal plane direction, shown negatron compatibility (NEA).This NEA phenomenon is: the energy level in conducting region is higher than the energy level of free electron in vacuum state.Therefore, the potential barrier of reversing diamond surface only needs quite low electric field, and in other words, diamond is well suited for being used for field emission.
(0001) crystal face of graphite has and the same hexagonal structure of adamantine (111) crystal face.Moreover, owing in the graphite treatment process, sandwiched some nitrogen impurities, so also show the NEA phenomenon.In addition, graphite also has self-healing feature; That is, although because ion bombardment, graphite crystal face edge can rupture, and they also can be regenerated.Like this, graphite just becomes the ideal material that can be used for field emissive cathode.
With reference now to Fig. 6 to Fig. 8 antianode assembly manufacture process, describes.
At first, as shown in Figure 6, carry out etching, can in second substrate 3, linearity form a plurality of conducting shells 11 by the spraying plating indium tin oxide and to it.
In turn, as shown in Figure 7, heat-treat, can on conducting shell 11, form a plurality of light-emitting layers 13 by screen seal fluorescent material and to it.
At last, heat-treat by screen seal one deck glass and to it, a plurality of dielectric layers 15 are formed on the remainder of second substrate 3, between adjacent light-emitting layer 13.Dielectric layer 15 is arranged to such an extent that parallel with light-emitting layer 13.
As Fig. 5 and shown in Figure 9, negative electrode and anode assemblies after the processing are connected with each other.At this moment, apply seal glass material 19 and 21 along the neighboring, simultaneously conducting shell 5 and 11 is provided with to form a pixel location matrix in mode in length and breadth.Then, by under a predetermined pressure, heat-treating connected assembly is sealed together.Then, sealed unit is evacuated and remains under the vacuum state.At last, discharge gas is injected into the inner space that is evacuated the unit, thereby finishes the flat-panel monitor manufacture process.
Described discharge gas preferably is used in argon, neon and mercury gas mixture or the neon xenon-133 gas mixture in the plasma display panel usually.
At work, conducting shell 5 and 11 is applied alternating current, added electric field reverses potential barrier and the emitting electrons therefrom in the emission layer 9.The electronics that is launched is accelerated under the effect of electric field that imposes on conducting shell 11, thereby excites discharge gas to produce ultraviolet light simultaneously.
Then, thus ultraviolet light is mapped on the corresponding fluorescent material of light-emitting layer 13 it is carried out the light emission.In the time of by second substrate 3, the light of being launched has reproduced visual image.
In this preferred embodiment, the seam between the substrate 1 and 3 is apart from 5~50 mu m ranges, and the electric field that is applied remains on 10 6V/m, and vacuum degree reaches 10 -6Torr, under this state, the brightness (200Cd/cm that flat-panel monitor of the present invention had 2) be twice in prior art flat-panel monitor for realizing that field emission uses the fusible metal awl to hold, improved consistency simultaneously.
In the present invention, the material that is used for field emissive cathode is not limited to graphite, can also be the carbon (DLC) of diamond or similar diamond lattic structure.
In addition, light-emitting layer 13 also can be made of low-voltage fluorescence material or color CRT fluorescent material.
The type of used discharge gas is depended in the selection of relevant fluorescent material.For example, when discharge gas is an argon, during the mixture of neon and mercury gas, the color CRT fluorescent material is used as light emission purpose.Mercury gas produces the ultraviolet light of the big wavelength with 254nm.Otherwise, be neon at discharge gas, during the xenon-133 gas mixture, the low-voltage fluorescence material as the plasma scope fluorescent material is used to light emission purpose, and mist produces the ultraviolet light that has than the 157nm of small wavelength.
As mentioned above, flat-panel monitor of the present invention can use simple screen impression method to make, and this method provides the large-screen structure with cheap cost.Moreover, be used for field emission owing to will have the graphite material of self-healing characteristic, so this display unit is very long useful life.
In addition; because flat-panel monitor of the present invention uses a kind of discharge gas; and the graphite-based negative electrode directly is used as electron emission source; so no longer need in plasma scope, be provided for the independent layer (for example MgO layer) that guard electrode is not subjected to the ion injection of discharge gas, thereby reduce the compartment gap greatly.
Though reference example is described in detail the present invention, those skilled in the art still can make various modifications and replacement to the present invention under the situation of the claim scope that does not break away from spirit of the present invention and proposed.
