The present invention provides a ceramic-glass composite electrode and a fluorescent lamp having the same. The ceramic-glass composite electrode according to the present invention is a ceramic-glass composite, which is disposed at the ends of a glass tube of the fluorescent lamp. A stopper is disposed at the end of the glass tube for pushing against the ceramic-glass composite electrode and limiting the position of the ceramic-glass composite electrode slipped on the glass tube. Thereby, flowing of adhesives into the glass tube is avoided when the adhesives are used for gluing the glass tube and the ceramic-glass composite electrode, and hence extending the lifetime of the fluorescent lamp.

The invention relates to a field emission display constructed using an array of fibers and an orthogonal array of emitter electrodes. Each fiber in the fiber array contains an extraction electrode, spacer, a high voltage electrode and a phosphor layer. The array of emitter electrodes consists of carbon nanotube emitters attached to conductive electrodes. The emitter electrodes are separated using non-conductive fibers.

An LED assembly can include a heat sink base, at least one LED die attached to the heat sink base, and a lens. One or more layers of phosphor can be formed upon the lens. A heat sink, such as a finned heat sink, can attach the heat sink base to the lens. Heat from the LED die can flow through the heat sink base to the heat sink, from which the heat can be dissipated. Similarly, heat from phosphors can flow through the lens to the heat sink, from which the heat can be dissipated. By removing heat from the LED die, more current can be used to drive the LED die, thus providing brighter light. By removing heat from the phosphors, desired colors can be more reliably provided.

A process for fabricating a face plate for a flat panel display such as a field emission cathode type display, the face plate having integral spacer support structures is disclosed. Also disclosed is a product made by the aforesaid process. The support structures are designed to be load bearing so as to prevent implosion of a planar, transparent face plate toward a parallel spaced-apart base plate when the space between the face plate and the base plate is sealed at the edges of the display to form a chamber, and the chamber is evacuated in the presence of atmospheric pressure outside the chamber. Unlike most spacer support structures proposed for such flat panel displays, the support structures are made from the same material as the substrate from which the face plate is fabricated. For a preferred embodiment of the process, a perforated laminar template is sealably sandwiched between a laminar silicate glass substrate and a manifold block to form a temporary sandwich assembly. The laminar template, preferably formed from a refractory ceramic or graphite material, is perforated with mold holes which are perpendicular to the major planar faces thereof, each hole corresponding to the desired location of a spacer support structure on the substrate. The manifold block has a plurality of mating ports, each such port mating with a major surface of the laminar template, and aligning with at least one mold hole of the template. Each of the mating ports is connected to a main vacuum port via a manifold formed from interconnecting grooves or passageways. After the substrate is heated evenly within a temperature range where the viscosity of the substrate material is greatly reduced, such that the material becomes plastic and readily flowable under pressure, pressure within the mold holes is reduced with respect to ambient pressure. The pressure differential causes the plastic substrate material will flow into the mold holes of the template.
