Templates for Deposition of Microscopic Pointed Structures
These structures can be used as field emitters in plasma television screens.
Templates for fabricating sharply pointed microscopic peaks arranged in nearly regular planar arrays can be fabricated by a relatively inexpensive technique that has recently been demonstrated. Depending on the intended application, a semiconducting, insulating, or metallic film could be deposited on such a template ...
