Abstract: Method for production of diamond-like carbon film having semiconducting properties comprises preparing a boron-doped diamond-like carbon (B-DLC) thin film on a silicon substrate through a radio frequency magnetron sputtering process, wherein a composite target material formed by inserting boron tablet as a dopant source in a graphite target is used. After forming a boron-containing diamond-like carbon film, the thin film is annealed at a temperature of 500° C. and kept at this temperature for 10 minutes, and determine its carrier concentration and resistivity. Thus demonstrated that the polarity of said boron-doped diamond-like carbon film is p-type semiconductor characteristic. Carrier concentration can be up to 1.3×1018 cm-3, and its resistivity is about 0.6 ?-cm; consequently.

Abstract: A flat fluorescent lamp is provided. In the flat fluorescent lamp, a discharge gas and a fluorescent material are disposed inside a chamber; first and second electrodes covered by a dielectric layer are disposed at the bottom of the chamber; first protruding points are disposed on a first side of each electrode; and second protruding points are disposed on a second side of each electrode. In each electrode, the first and the second protruding points are alternately laid. The first light-emitting region formed between the first protruding points and the first and second electrodes corresponding thereto and the second light-emitting region formed between the second protruding points and the first and second electrodes corresponding thereto are one of the entirely not overlapping and partially overlapping. Further, a driving method for the flat fluorescent lamp and a liquid crystal display device having the flat fluorescent lamp are provided.
