Abstract: A ferroelectric cold cathode comprising a ferroelectric layer formed of a ferroelectric material and provided on its one surface with an emitter which is a projection having a sharp tip portion, a first electrode layer formed on one surface of the ferroelectric layer and having an opening allowing the sharp tip portion of the emitter to be exposed therethrough, and a second electrode layer formed on the other surface of the ferroelectric layer. When a voltage is applied between the first electrode and the second electrode, a dielectric polarization is reversed in the ferroelectric layer, resulting in the emission of electrons from the sharp tip portion of the emitter.

Abstract: A flat panel image sensor is provided by combining the photoconductive imaging electrode of a vidicon with a two dimensional array of cold cathode field emitters commonly used for flat panel Field Emission Display (FED) systems. The FED operates normally to emit electrons which are accelerated in prior art displays towards a luminescent phosphor to generate light output proportional to the cathode emission. Rather than accelerating towards a phosphor, electrons, in accordance with the principles of this invention, are accelerated towards a photoconductor layer to replace charge removed from the layer by an incident radiation pattern directed at the photoconductor layer through a layer of transparant, electrically-conducting material which serves as a radiation window. A large area, low cost, small, flat panel sensor is realized. The transparant, electrically-conducting layer may be partitioned to reduce stray capacitance for large area sensors and the partitioned, electrically-conducting layer permits a parallel readout mode of operation. The sensor includes a means for collimating and focusing the electron beams and may be used with infra red and ultra violet photoconductor materials.

Abstract: An electroluminescent display formed on a ceramic substrate having a front ceramic surface and a back ceramic surface. The ceramic substrate includes a metal core that provides structural support, electrical ground, and heat dissipation. Electroluminescent cells are mounted on the front ceramic surface and driver circuits for driving the of electroluminescent cells are mounted on the back ceramic surface. The driver circuits are positioned directly behind said electroluminescent cells. Connectors extend through said ceramic substrate and the electroluminescent cells to different driver circuits. By positioning the driver circuits close to the EL cells, the drive lines from the drivers to the EL cells are short which allows for high refresh rates and low resistance losses. Each of the driver circuits can drive one electroluminescent cell or a group of electroluminescent cells. EL display cells coupled to a cermet electrode can also be driven by a field emission device or a low power electron beam.
