Show Abstract
Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are coated over the MgO protective film in an ac plasma display panel for the stabilization of discharges. The emission of priming electrons from CNTs was evaluated by analyzing the time, voltage, and temperature dependence of the statistical discharge delay. By employing CNTs as a source of priming electrons, discharges were stabilized drastically, and the statistical discharge delay remained almost constant for the measuring time ( ∼ 1 s) and temperature (from −50 to 80 °C) range. The emission from CNTs can be explained by field electron emission.
