Abstract:
A display has a screen which incorporates a light modulator. The screen may be a front projection screen or a rear-projection screen. The screen is illuminated with light from a light source comprising an array of controllable light-emitters. The controllable-emitters and elements of the light modulator may be controlled to adjust the intensity of light emanating from corresponding areas on the screen. The display may provide a high dynamic range.
Abstract:
A target for ultraviolet light generation comprises a substrate adapted to transmit ultraviolet light therethrough and a light-emitting layer disposed on the substrate and generating ultraviolet light in response to an electron beam. The light-emitting layer includes a polycrystalline film constituted by an oxide polycrystal containing Lu and Si doped with an activator or a polycrystalline film constituted by a rare-earth-containing aluminum garnet polycrystal doped with an activator.

The light-emitting layer includes a powdery or granular oxide crystal containing Lu and Si doped with an activator (e.g., Pr:LPS and Pr:LSO crystals).
Abstract:
A mesh electrode adhesion structure includes: a substrate, and an opening defined in the substrate; a mesh electrode on the substrate, and a first combination groove defined in the mesh electrode; and an adhesion layer between the substrate and the mesh electrode. The mesh electrode includes: a mesh region corresponding to the opening defined in the substrate, and an adhesion region in which the first combination groove exposes the adhesion layer.
Abstract:
An ultraviolet light generating target 20 includes a substrate 21 made of sapphire, quartz or rock crystal; and a Pr:LuAG polycrystalline film 22, provided on the substrate 21, that generates ultraviolet light upon receiving an electron beam. By using a Pr:LuAG polycrystal as the target, the ultraviolet light generating efficiency can be increased more remarkably than when a Pr:LuAG single crystal film is used.

Abstract:
Disclosed herein is a method for fabricating a field emitter electrode. The method comprises the steps of: providing an electrolytic solution containing metal ions to an electrolytic bath; providing carbon nanotubes and a cationic dispersant for preventing the agglomeration of the carbon nanotubes to the electrolytic solution; and applying a predetermined voltage to a cathode drum and an insoluble anodic compartment, both of which are immersed in the electrolytic solution, and forming a metal film containing the carbon nanotubes along the surface of the cathode drum.
Abstract:
A field emitting luminous device is disclosed. The device includes a cathode electron emitting unit, an electron amplifying unit, a panel unit, and an electric power supply unit. The primary electrons emitted from the cathode electron emitting unit hit the electron amplifying material on the electrode surface of the electron amplifying unit, generating amplified secondary electrons. The secondary electrons bombard the light-emitting layer of the panel unit, producing fluorescence. The fluorescence penetrates the upper transparent panel and is thus observed by eyes.
Abstract:
A cathodoluminescent light source comprising a field-emission cathode serving as a source of electrons, an anode having a specular light-reflecting surface, and an electron-excited phosphor applied to the specular light-reflecting anode surface. The cathode and anode are enclosed in an evacuated housing having a transparent surface, so as to let the electron-excited phosphor on the anode surface, be irradiated with an electron beam, and let the luminous flux resulting from the process of cathodoluminescence, to emerge.
