Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To make emission currents uniform between an inner separation area and an outermost separation area during normal operation and to keep the corners of blocks from being recessed by causing the blocks to be separated from one another by independent trenches surrounding the blocks. SOLUTION: Emitters 3, insulating layers 4, and gate electrodes 5 are formed on a silicon substrate 2, and the top of the silicon substrate 2 is divided into thirty-six blocks by trenches 1 in each of which a BPSG (silica glass mixed with boron and phosphor) film 6 is buried. In this case, since the silicon substrate 2 surrounded by the trenches 1 serving as the paths of current has resistance determined by substrate density, the size of each block surrounded by the trench 1, and the depth of the trench 1, a voltage drop occurs if electrons are emitted from each emitter 3. Depletion layers are formed from the side wall of the trench 1 to immediately below the emitter 3, but since the blocks are separated from one another by the trenches 1, the extensions of the depletion layers become equal, so that the emission currents of the blocks can be made uniform.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a field emission type cold cathode, capable of limiting an overcurrent generated at the time of electric discharge, causing no short circuit destruction due to electric discharge destruction, moreover realizing high-frequency action and low electric power consumption, and restraining the temperature rise of an element. SOLUTION: This cold cathode element is divided into three n-type semiconductor regions: an n-type semiconductor region 3 formed so as to envelop an emitter 6 lower part by a p-type semiconductor region 5, an n-type semiconductor region 2 formed so as to be enveloped by a p-type semiconductor region 2 in the lower part of the region 3, and an n-type semiconductor region 1 formed moreover in the lower part of the region 2. Here, the cross dection area of the region 2 is made smaller than that of the region 3, thereby making an n-type region, composed of three n-type semiconductor regions, have a constricted shape.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a field emission cold cathode which produces stable emission characteristics without causing element breakdown over a long period by making a gate insulating layer and a gate electrode layer sufficiently flat. SOLUTION: This field emission cold cathode comprises: a CNT(carbon nano tube) layer 3 which includes a plurality of CNT laid on a glass substrate 1 and forms an emitter 3b; a gate insulating layer (9) which exposes the surface of the CNT layer 3 through openings 7 passing through both layers which are formed one after another on the CNT layer 3 and composing the gate insulating layer (9); a gate electrode layer 6. The cold cathode emits electrons from the surface of a emitter 3b when voltages are applied on the emitter 3b and on the gate electrode layer 6 respectively. The gate insulating layer (9) consists of multiple insulating-layer 9 laminated in order with more than two layers.

PURPOSE:To obtain a focusing characteristic excellent in the whole screen uniformly. CONSTITUTION:In a focusing electrode system consisting of three lattice electrodes, a first lattice electrode 14 and a third lattice electrode 16 are provided with a round electron beam passing hole each, and a second lattice electrode 5 is provided with a non-rotary symmetric electron beam passing hole while the second lattice electrode 15 is made applicable of prescribed focusing voltage and the first and third lattice electrodes 14, 16 are made applicable of dynamic voltage synchronized with deflection cycle. In an inline type color picture tube according to a self-covergence deflection system, a form of an electron beam is remarkably distorted around a picture due to its distorted deflection magnetic field. However, three lattice electrode generate a quadrupolelens allowing to change its intensity corresponding to a deflection angle and to cancel distortion of the electron beam due to a deflection magnetic field.
