Abstract
A method of achieving a variable resolution on a field emission display including the step of addressing a cathode half-pixel region of an emitter line of the field emission display, wherein the emitter line is segmented into a fixed number of cathode sub-pixel regions, each cathode sub-pixel region being defined as a portion of the emitter line between two adjacent gate wires of a plurality of gate wires of a gate frame that pass above the emitter line, wherein the cathode half-pixel region is defined as a portion of the emitter line occupying portions of two adjacent cathode sub-pixel regions, wherein providing the appearance of more than the fixed number of cathode sub-pixel regions.
