Abstract: A vacuum gap dielectric field emission triode and a method of fabrication include a conductive layer positioned on a supporting substrate and an emitter positioned on the conductive layer. A gate metal layer electrically separated from the conductive layer defines a metal bridge gate surrounding the emitter and separated from the emitter by a substantially fixed distance. The gate metal layer defines a gate opening through the metal bridge gate overlying the emitter. An anode is positioned in spaced relationship to the gate metal layer and the triode is sealed in a substantial vacuum so that the emitter is separated from the metal bridge by the substantial vacuum and the metal bridge is separated from the anode by the substantial vacuum.

Abstract: A field emissive display (40) having an anode plate (10) coupled to a cathode plate (20) and a method for manufacturing the field emissive display (40). A substrate (21) of the cathode plate (20) is manufactured or selected such that its coefficient of thermal expansion substantially matches that of the anode plate (10), i.e., the coefficients of thermal expansion of the cathode plate (20) and the anode plate (10) are within ten percent of each other. The cathode plate (20) is coupled to the anode plate (10) by means of a frit structure (41) whose coefficient of thermal expansion preferably substantially matches that of the cathode plate (20) and the anode plate (10). A control circuit can be mounted to the bottom surface of the field emissive display (40).

Abstract: A vacuum gap dielectric field emission triode and a method of fabrication include a conductive layer (21) positioned on a supporting substrate (20) and an emitter (25) positioned on the conductive layer. A gate metal layer electrically separated from the conductive layer defines a metal bridge gate (35) surrounding the emitter and separated from the emitter by a substantially fixed distance. The gate metal layer defines a gate opening (30) through the metal bridge gate overlying the emitter. An anode (45) is positioned in spaced relationship to the gate metal layer and the triode is sealed in a substantial vacuum so that the emitter is separated from the metal bridge by the substantial vacuum and the metal bridge is separated from the anode by the substantial vacuum. The method congrises the steps of forming asacrificial layer surrounding the enitter, forming a gate seed layer on the sacrificial layer and forming a mask on the gate seed layer thus defining a gate opening and gate edges.
