Abstract

Field emission displays are currently undergoing rapid transition from laboratory prototypes into commercial display components. Display lifetime and reliability are critical issues that will determine success of these displays in the marketplace. In this paper, we will summarize issues affecting field emission display lifetime and a roadmap for creating long life field emission display devices.
