    Abstract: A field emission cathode device and method for forming a field emission cathode device involve a cathode element having a field emission surface, and a gate electrode element disposed in spaced-apart relation to the field emission surface of the cathode element so as to define a gap therebetween, with the gate electrode element having a plurality of parallel grill members or a mesh structure laterally-extending between opposing anchored ends. A film element laterally co-extends and is engaged with the gate electrode element, with the film element being arranged to allowed electrons emitted from the field emission surface of the cathode element to pass therethrough, and to cooperate with the gate electrode element and the cathode element to form a substantially uniform electric field within the gap and about the field emission surface.
