METHOD OF PATTERNING CATALYST LAYER FOR SYNTHESIS OF CARBON NANOTUBES AND METHOD OF FABRICATING FIELD EMISSION DEVICE

摘要

A method of patterning a catalyst layer for synthesis of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and a method of fabricating a field emission device (FED) using the method, whereby a catalyst layer formed of metal salt having a weak-acid negative ion group is formed on a substrate, a photoresist is formed on the catalyst layer, the photoresist is exposed to a light using a photomask with a predetermined pattern, predetermined regions of the photoresist and the catalyst layer are removed by using a strong base developing solution, and the photoresist which remains on the catalyst layer is removed.
