We successfully fabricated field emitter arrays of carbon nanotube (CNT) dots of 10 mm diameter with excellent field emission properties by using photosensitive CNT paste. The CNT paste was investigated in terms of morphologies, current-voltage properties, and luminous uniformities by varying the mixing ratios of micro and nanoparticle inorganic fillers and the amount of CNTs added into the paste. The 3:1 mixing of micro and nanoparticle fillers and the addition of 5% CNTs in the paste brought about the best field emission characteristics of dot-patterned CNT field emitter arrays.
