Abstract
The feasibility of using Ce-doped silicates as an alternative to the P 22 blue phosphor (ZnS:Ag) was investigated for low voltage field emiss ion displays (FEDs). Silicates of various composition were evaluated b ased on their chromaticity, intrinsic efficiency, and brightness satur ation behavior. The influence of silicate composition and particle mor phology on the cathodoluminescence properties was also assessed. Satur ation measurements indicated that the high saturation resistance of th e Ce-doped samples can yield better performance than ZnS:Ag when opera ting at low voltages. The silicates are also attractive for their stab ility in a FED environment. (C) 1998 American Vacuum Society. [S0734-2 11X(98)06102-2].
