Abstract:
A field emission display with raised conductive features at bonding locations, and methods of forming the raised conductive features. In accordance with one embodiment of the invention, a plurality of applicators are arranged in a pattern corresponding to a pattern of bonding locations on either a baseplate or a faceplate of a field emission display. The bonding locations and respective applicators are aligned with each other, and then a predetermined quantity of a thick film conductive bonding material is deposited substantially simultaneously through each applicator onto each bonding location. The thick film conductive bonding material forms a conductive pad at each bonding location. The pads of thick film conductive bonding material are subsequently fired to form a raised feature at each bonding location.
