Abstract: An optical pumping field emission type light-to-current converter is constructed by joining an optical wave guide material (1) through which light is propagated, a conductive transparent film (2), a semiconductor material or an insulating material (3), and a conductor material (4) to each other. The optical wave guide material may have a needle-like shape (6) which is obtained by sharpening the light emission guide side thereof. Thereby is obtained an optical pumping field emission type light-to-current converter having a simplified structure high sensitivity and high-speed response on the order of picoseconds (10 -12 seconds) due to a large field emission current.

Abstract: A vacuum flat panel display has a plurality of associated pixels each having a phosphor and nanotubes and a surrounding control frame. When a pixel voltage is negative relative to the frame then a plurality of electrons emitted by the nanotubes are attracted to the frame whereby electrons strike gas atoms in transit to the frame and produce ions and additional electrons; wherein said ions returning to the pixel result in phosphor illumination. The invention is also a process for illuminating a phosphor in a flat panel display comprising: a plurality of associated pixels each having a phosphor and nanotubes; applying a pixel voltage negative relative to a frame; attracting to the frame a plurality of electrons emitted by the nanotubes; whereby electrons strike atoms of a gas in transit to the frame producing ions resulting in phosphor illumination.

Abstract: A vacuum flat panel display including: a plurality of electrically addressable pixels; a plurality of thin-film transistor driver circuits each being electrically coupled to an associated at least one of the pixels, respectively; a passivating layer on the thin-film transistor driver circuits and at least partially around the pixels; a conductive frame on the passivating layer, said frame and pixel area coated with an insulator; and, a plurality of cathode emitters are deposited on the coated frame while phosphor is deposited on the coated pixel; wherein, exciting the cathode emitters and addressing one of the pixels using the associated driver circuit causes the emitted electrons to induce one of the pixels to emit light. By introducing a noble gas or mixture, and a ML layer having a DC, AC or pulsed voltage applied thereto, one creates a plasma to form a sheath boundary at the insulator causing electron multiplication and increased illumination.

Abstract: An improved device, method, and system efficiently couple high-frequency energy from radiation-assisted field emission. A radiation source radiates an emitting surface with an electromagnetic field. The electromagnetic field reduces the potential barrier at the emitting surface, allowing electrons to tunnel from the surface. The tunneling electrons produce a current. The electron tunneling current oscillates in response to the oscillations of the electromagnetic field radiation. Two or more electromagnetic fields of different frequencies radiate the emitting surface, causing photomixing. The electron tunneling current oscillates in response to the difference of the frequencies of the electromagnetic fields.

Abstract: A vacuum microelectronic device (10,40) emits electrons (37) from surfaces of nanotube emitters (17, 18). Extracting electrons from the surface of each nanotube emitter (17) results is a small voltage variation between each emitter utilized in the device (10, 40). Consequently, the vacuum microelectronic device (10,40) has a more controllable turn-on voltage and a consistent current density from each nanotube emitter (17,18).

Abstract: A radiation assisted electron emission device uses semiconductor or semi-insulator material formed with an emission mechanism such as a field emission tip, a thermionic emission device, or a negative electron affinity emitter as a source of electrons. The material is irradiated with a source of radiation, such as electromagnetic radiation, neutron radiation, or charged particle radiation, which excites electron-hole pairs in the material to generate a population of free conducting electrons. The electrons are driven to the emission mechanism by a suitable transport process, such as diffusion or drift. The electron emission device has applicability to a broad range of technologies where an electron beam or current is used.
