Abstract :
In this paper, the authors report a simple method can control the CNTs distribution. The emission properties of screen-printed CNTs were improved after using with a wetting and dispersing additive simultaneously. Moreover, the screening effect of the agglomerated CNTs emitters are also numerically studied.
