Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent the deterioration of a cold cathode due to the impact of positive ions. SOLUTION: A voltage of an accelerating electrode 13 is impressed so as to satisfy the relationship among a perveance Pμ of an electron source determined by the shape of an electron gun part 1, an electric potential Va of the accelerating electrode 13, and a current Ib of an electron beam (e), represented by the formula Ib . At any time during operation, including rising and falling, the accelerating electrode 13 is impressed to the electric potential which is highest among that of each electrode in the electron tube. A gate 24 voltage is impressed at the end step of a rise operation, and the gate 24 voltage is first shut down at a fall time.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To realize excellent resolution over the whose surface of a display image screen by negating only distortion of a spot of an electron beam generated according to deflection. SOLUTION: An electron emitting area 8 composed of at least a singular minute cold cathode 7 composed of an emitter 6 and a gate electrode 4 is formed on a substrate 1, and plural focusing electrodes are arranged on the periphery of this electron emitting area 8 so as to surround the electron emission region 8, and the focusing electrodes opposing with the electron emission region 8 as the center are connected to each other. Horizontal directional focusing is strengthened when an electron beam scans a peripheral part of an image screen on the basis of horizontal and vertical synchronous signals, and an electron beam having a longitudinally long spot is formed in the vicinity of a cathode. This cold cathode is constituted by using a cathode-ray tube as an electron source.

Abstract: PURPOSE: To improve a reliable life of a cathode by preventing decreasing of insulating resistance and dielectric strength due to contamination by dirt, dust or the like received during a process of manufacturing an array-shaped field emission cold cathode and an electronic device equipped with this cathode. CONSTITUTION: Layers of insulating layer 2 and gate electrode 3 are deposited through a cathode of forming an emitter 5 by a film deposition method in a gate opening and through a mask formed on the emitter 5 formed by etching a substrate 1. In this cathode, a common insulating film 6 is formed in at least a lower part of the emitter 5 and a side surface part of the insulating layer 2. In order to form this insulating film 6, a pressure reducing CVD method or SOG technique is used.

Abstract: PURPOSE:To uniform an emission current per emitter in a high density field emission cold cathode increase a total emission current in the cathode, prevent discharge breakdown by limiting a discharge current between a gate and an emitter and realize the reliable cathode. CONSTITUTION:A highly resistant epitaxial layer 2 is laminated on a substrate 1 and ions are driven therein through an opening formed in a gate electrode 4 to form a resistance layer 6 independent for every emitter in the epitaxial layer 2. An emitter 7 is formed on the resistance layer 6 with known evaporation. Or, ions are driven into the first conductive substrate 1 through the opening in the gate electrode to form the second conductive area independent for every emitter. By means of voltage drop in the resistance layer 6 or in the second conductive area, an emission current is uniformalized.

Abstract: PURPOSE:To make a microwave tube compact in size and have high precision and improve its reliability and efficiency, by dividing an emitter electrode into a plurality of parts and making it possible to switch two current modes at high current and low current by altering the voltage applied. CONSTITUTION:While being set to intersect each other right and left and to cover a circular electron emission region, a first emitter electrode 5 and a second emitter electrode 6 of metal thin films are formed on an insulating substrate 1. When a switch 7 is set at B position, a cold cathode is turned in the high current mode and an electric field is applied to the tips of all of the emitters 4 and electrons are emitted from the whole surface of the cathode, that is, the emitters 4 in the whole surface of the circular electron emission region. When the switch 7 is set at A position, the cold cathode is turned in low current mode and the electrode 6 is kept at the same potential as that of gate electrodes 3, so that electrons are not emitted from the emitters 4 formed on the electrode 6 and electrons are emitted only from the emitters 4 formed on the electrode 5. Consequently, axially symmetric and excellent emission current distribution can be obtained.

Abstract: PURPOSE:To form a high-quality electron beam by laminating a substrate laminated with a conducting layer, a sharpened electrode, and an insulating layer, and forming an electrode insulated from a control electrode around the control electrode. CONSTITUTION:Voltage of tens to 100V is applied to a gate electrode 4 while the potential of a substrate 1, i.e., emitters 2, is used as a reference, and voltage is applied to a peripheral electrode 7 between the substrate 1 and the electrode 4, for example. The distance between the electrode 7 and the electrode 4, a wiring 6, and a bonding pad 5 is set to about 10mum, and it is sufficiently larger than the thickness of lmum of an insulating layer 3. The electrostatic capacity between the electrode 4 and the electrode 7 is sufficiently smaller than the electrostatic capacity between the electrode 4 and the emitters 2, and a possibility of occurrence of an insulation problem is sufficiently small. The insulating layer 3 is exposed on the peripheral section of the substrate 1, and the insulation between the substrate 1 and the bonding pad 5, i.e., the gate electrode 4, and between the substrate 1 and the electrode 7 is secured. Electric charges can be prevented from being accumulated on an insulating film.

Abstract: PURPOSE:To reduce a gate voltage for emitting the same current, and stabilize the emitted current by composing an insulation layer between a substrate and a gate electrode of a multi-layer structure having different dielectric constants, and using a material of a smaller dielectric constant on the substrate side. CONSTITUTION:A conical emitter 2 to emit electrons on a conductive substrate 1 is formed, and it is electrically connected to the substrate 1. Insulation layers 3, 4, etc., of a multi-layer structure of different dielectric constants are provided surrounding the emitter 2, and the dielectric constant of the first insulation layer 3 closest to the substrate 1 is set to be smaller than the dielectric constant of the second insulation layer 4. In addition, a gate electrode 5 is laminated on the second insulation layer 4 to form an aperture 5a surrounding the emitter 2. Field strength close to a forward end of the emitter 2 is thus set larger compared with that in case of the insulation layer of uniform field strength, so a lower gate voltage is required for obtaining the same emitted current. Possibility of generation of mechanical deformation at the forward end of the emitter 2 can thus be reduced when positive ions are accelerated by the gate voltage to give impact on an electron emission part of the emitter 2.
