    Abstract: PURPOSE:To prevent deterioration in the yield of products caused by misalignment, etc., and contribe a longer life of an element, the thinner film of an insulation layer and the low-voltage drive of a modulating electrode by integrally forming the modulating electrode and an electron emission element on a board without providing the modulating electrode directly under the electron emission section. CONSTITUTION:A resist pattern is formed on an insulation board 1. After Ti as under-coating material and Ni as modulating material are evaporated all over, a modulating electrode pattern 2 with a hole 2' is formed using a lift-off technique. A SiO2 film as an insulation layer 5 is given mask-deposition on the partial upper faces of the electrode 2 and the board 1. An element electrode pattern 3 of SCE with a gap is formed above the hole 2' in the electrode 2. Cr is evaporated all over. A resist pattern for removing only Cr near the electron emission section 4 is formed to remove desired Cr with etching. Organic palladium as emission material is formed all over to etch out patterning Cr.

    Abstract: PURPOSE:To simplify fabricating processes, give a sufficient amount of electron emission, and eliminate variation or unevenness in modulation by laminating electron emitting elements and modulation electrode one over another with an insulative base body interposed, and designing so that, the thickness of these elements or the distance from electrode to the electron emitting part lies within a certain range. CONSTITUTION:In an electron beam generating device, electron emitting elements 2, 3 as source of electron beam and a modulation electrode 4, which modulates electron beam emitted by these elements 2, 3, are laminated one over another with insulative base body 1 interposed, wherein the thickness T of the elements 2, 3 or the distance from electrode 4 to the electron emitting part 3 of the elements 2, 3 lies within the range 0.01-200mum. This facilitates alignment of the electrode 4 with element 2, 3, simplifies fabrication, and gives a sufficient amount of electron emission compared with conventional arrangement. Further, this improves remarkably the modulational unevenness between a plurality of electron beams or undeliberate variation of the amount of electron emission at the time of driving, and also provides an excellent modulation efficiency.

    Abstract: PURPOSE:To facilitate alignment of an electron emitting element with modulation electrodes and accomplish a high grade image at low cost by laminating the modulation electrodes an insulation layer, and the electron emitting element one over another on an insulated base board, taking away part of the insulation layer, and exposing the modulation electrodes. CONSTITUTION:From an electroconductive material a group of linearly shaped modulation electrodes 32 are formed on a glass base board 31 by means of evaporation and photo-lithographic technique. Then an insulation layer 33 is attached by evaporation process with SiO2, and further an element electrode 35 and an element wiring electrode 34 are fabricated from Ni material through evaporation and etching technique. A super-particulate film of Pd is provided between electrodes mating with each other by the gas deposition process, and thus an electron emission part 35 is formed. A layer 33 in the neighborhood of the element electrode 35 is removed rectangularly by means of photo-lithographic and etching techniques to accomplish an electron beam generating device. Element part 36 and electrodes 32 are laminated with this layer 33 interposed, and thus a display can be provided cheaply, which is easy to have alignment and is equipped with a large screen and highly fine picture.

    Abstract: PURPOSE:To facilitate the positioning of electron discharge elements and modulating electrodes and facilitate the alignment of modulating electrodes and electron discharge portions and make the manufacture simple, by accumulating in order and layers modu lating electrodes and insulation layers and electron discharge elements on an insulation base, and making the area of a modulating electrode larger than that of an electron discharge element. CONSTITUTION:As for an electron discharge element 35, one which is used as the electronic source of an image display device, is desired, and a cold cathode is preferable, and one which is called a surface conduction form discharge element, is more preferable. Also, the thickness of the thicker one of either of an element electrode 35 and an electron discharge portion 36 is preferred to be 0.1-200mum. The size of a modulating electrode 32 is preferred to be more than five times the size of an element, and the optimum is more than ten times. At this electron beam generator, the variation of an unintentional electron discharge quantity and modulation unevenness between plural electron beams are remarkably corrected, and an image display device using this, is superior in image contrast and has high brilliance, and the unevenness of brilliance is reduced.

    Abstract: PURPOSE:To display a high-precision image on a large screen at a low cost by integrally forming modulating electrodes and surface conductive type electron emitting elements via an insulator. CONSTITUTION:Surface conductive type electron emitting elements with less power consumption are used for an electron generating source. A line-shaped modulating electrode 32 group is formed on a glass substrate 31, and an insulator film 33 is formed on it. Element electrodes 35 and element wiring electrodes 34 are formed on the insulator film 33 at the high-precision mutual positional relationship required with modulating electrodes 32. An electron emitting section 36 formed between parallel element electrodes, e.g. 34-a and 34-b, maintains the high-precision positional relationship with the corresponding modulating electrode, and a large screen with no irregularity can be formed.
