Abstract :
In this paper, the field emission characteristics were investigated for the printed MWCNT display panels. The effect of plasma treatment on the field emission characteristics was investigated in-situ in a vacuum chamber equipped with a inductively coupled plasma source. The field emission current was measured typically at a gap distance of 70 microns and at pressures around 10/sup -6/ torr.
