First Nano Designs Next-Generation
EasyTube™ FED System
Santa Barbara, CA, July 21,
2004 – First Nano has designed and
developed the next-generation EasyTube™ System specifically intended
for field emission display (FED) technology, application research
and development.
Cary Chee, CEO of First Nano
said “We are thrilled to be chosen by a prominent research institute
in the Asian Pacific region to develop the EasyTube™ FED System, a
chemical vapor deposition system for producing nanotubes or
nanowires directly onto large glass substrates for FED devices. The
EasyTube FED will allow research to transition into product
prototyping and manufacturing capability, which is a major step
toward the commercialization of nanomaterials-based FED devices and
technology.”
Asia represents one of the
largest markets for FED research and technology development. It is
expected that the global industrial R&D community will benefit from
the new tool turnkey features and large substrate sample size area.
Current field emission display
commercial products include flat panel displays, personal computers
and other high-tech electronic display products.
First Nano provides specialized
solutions for process control challenges unique to the
nanotechnology field and focuses on addressing specific application
needs by applying broad experience in nanotechnology instrumentation
and fabrication.
