Abstract: A structure suitable for partial or full use in a spacer (24) of a flat panel display has a porous face (54). The structure (24) may be formed with multiple aggregates (100) of coated particles (102) bonded together in an open manner to form pores (58). A coating (88) consisting primarily of carbon and having a highly uniform thickness may extend into pores (58) of a porous body (46). The coating (88) can be created by removing non-carbon material from carbon-containing species provided alone the pores (58). A solid porous film (82) whose thickness is normally no more than 20 mu m has a resistivity of 10 - 10 ohm-cm. A spacer (24) for a flat panel display (Fig.1) contains a support body (80) and an overlaying, normally porous, layer (82) whose resistivity is greater parallel to a face of the support body then perpendicular to the body's face.

Abstract: A flat-panel display contains a pair of plate structures (20, 22) separated by a spacer (24) having a rough face (54, 56). When electrons strike the spacer, the roughness in the spacer's face causes the number of secondary electrons that escape the spacer to be reduced, thereby alleviating positive charge buildup on the spacer. As a result, the image produced by the display is improved. The spacer facial roughness can be achieved in various ways such as depressions and/or protuberances. Various techniques are presented for manufacturing the display, including the rough-faced spacer.
