14-Inch Nanotube Display Demonstrated.(Applied Nanotech, Inc. )

Applied Nanotech, Inc. (ANI), a subsidiary of SI Diamond Technology (3006 Longhorn Blvd., Austin, TX 78758; Tel: 512/339- 5020), announced the demonstration of a 14-in. diagonal carbon nanotube display. The display was made with low-cost fabrication techniques on inexpensive glass substrates. No photolithographic steps were necessary which simplified the manufacturing process. This model was monochrome but color is possible using different phosphors.

The demonstration signaled an important milestone for ANI, expanding its carbon nanotube technology from full-color, small diagonal, low resolution picture element tubes (used as a component for outdoor sun visible …
