Abstract: The invention provides an electrophoretic deposition method of CNTs for a field emission device. It uses a triode structure having gates and a proper arrangement of applied voltages to improve the selectivity of the conventional EPD method. The electric field around the gates repels the charged or polarized nanostructure suspension in the electrophoresis bath and prevents the charged or polarized nanostructure materials from depositing in the neighborhood of the gates. Therefore, the nanostructure materials are selectively deposited on the cathode. An electrical short circuit between the gates and the cathodes can be avoided. It does not require a masked sacrificial layer, and therefore keeps the manufacturing process simple and the cost down.

It also reduces the driving voltage substantially. Therefore, the display in the dark is achieved by adjusting the voltage without changing the structure.
