Researchers from Skoltech, UiT the Arctic University of Norway, the Institute of Solid State Chemistry and Mechanochemistry SB RAS and their colleagues have theoretically investigated the properties of ultrathin diamond films and determined which of them hold the most promise for field-emission displays. These are an alternative flat-panel technology that used to be developed in parallel with the now-dominant LCDs and could one day make a comeback. The potential advantages are low power consumption, a wide viewing angle, and very fast response times, or how long it takes the display to change color. The study was published in ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces.
