Television

Present day colour televisions have big TV cathode ray tubes (CRTs) and are largely replaced by flat panel liquid-crystal displays (LCDs) which are more energy efficient, cause less eye strain, and more compact than Cathode-ray tubes. Motorola’s Microelectronic and Physical Sciences Labs has developed Nano-emissive Display (NED) technology which gives not only viable but also affordable. It is claimed that in a year or two, the general consumer might be able to afford a 60-inch or larger display. This is done by making nanotubes grow in straight lines, looking rather like bristles on a hairbrush, in a temperature-controlled chamber filled with a mixture of hydrogen, methane, and the proprietary catalyst. Nano is cheaper in that way due to a savings in the electronic components and costing relatively low. The NED TV could cost considerably low.
