surface-conduction electron-emitter display
(redirected from SED TV)

   Also found in: Wikipedia 0.01 sec.
surface-conduction electron-emitter display
A thin CRT technology developed by Canon that was based on field emission technology (FED). Announced in 2002, Canon created a joint venture with Toshiba to develop surface-conduction electron-emitter (SED) TVs, and prototypes at the 2006 CES show in Las Vegas demonstrated remarkable clarity. However, a lawsuit over sharing licensed technology relating to carbon nanotube emitters caused Canon to buy out Toshiba's stake in 2007. Due to improvements in LCD TV technology, Canon later turned its attention to OLED displays and liquidated its SED Inc. subsidiary in 2010.

Similar to Plasma Displays
Using millions of low voltage emitters (one for each pixel) on the cathode plate and regular CRT-like phosphors on the glass anode plate, the SED display used a third of the power of plasma displays. See FED and plasma display.

You may well purchase a plasma TV now, pay it off, confess you really enjoyed the plasma TV and yet purchase yet again the newer SED TV for your home for its better, more advanced picture and as a status symbol for your home.
Canon drew selling after saying Wednesday that it and Toshiba will delay the release of a jointly developed surface-conduction electron-emitter display television, or SED TV, until the October-December period of 2007 from the originally planned release date this spring.
