    Abstract: A gated area field emitter is fabricated according to a process in which charged-particle tracks are utilized in creating small electron-emissive elements self-aligned to corresponding gate openings in the gate electrode. The electron-emissive elements can have various shapes, including (a) a pedestal, typically a filament, having a pointed tip, (b) a cone, and (c) a combination of a pedestal and an overlying cone whose base diameter is greater than the pedestal's diameter. Each electron-emissive element can be formed as a highly resistive portion and an overlying electron-emissive portion.

    Abstract: A gated electron-emitting device contains a multiplicity of electron-emissive elements, each formed with a pedestal (98) and an overlying cone (94.sub.1). In each electron-emissive element, the base diameter of the cone is greater than the element, the base diameter of the cone is greater than the diameter of the pedestal. With the pedestal being electrically conductive, the cone may be electrically resistive. Alternatively, each electron-emissive element can be an elongated element (30B) that reaches a maximum diameter at a point between, and spaced apart from, both ends of the element.

    Abstract: An electron device of the present invention comprises an i-type diamond layer formed on a substrate, and an n-type diamond layer formed on the i-type diamond layer and having a first surface region formed flatly and a second surface region containing an emitter portion, which are set in a vacuum container, in which the emitter portion formed of the n-type diamond has a bottom area 10 or less .mu.m square and projects relative to the first surface region. In the n-type diamond layer, a difference is fine between the conduction band and the vacuum level. Also, since the n-type diamond layer is doped with an n-type dopant in a high concentration, metal conduction is dominant as conduction of electrons. Therefore, setting the temperature of the substrate at a predetermined temperature and generating an electric field near the surface of the emitter portion, electrons are emitted with a high efficiency from the tip portion of the emitter portion into the vacuum. Even though the emitter portion does not have a tip portion formed in a very fine shape, electrons can readily be taken out into the vacuum by the field emission with relatively small field strength. Consequently, the emission current and the current gain increase and the current density in the emitter portion decreases, thus increasing the withstand current or withstand voltage.

The flat panel display further includes the capability for selectively varying field emission between the plurality of corresponding light-emitting anodes and field-emission cathodes to thereby effect an addressable grey-scale operation of the flat panel display.

    Abstract: A method for forming a field emission device. A substrate is selectively patterned. An etch is performed to remove portions of the substrate to form protrusions. An oxidation is performed to the substrate that forms a first oxidized layer. A perpendicular etch is performed that removes portions of the first oxidized layer. A second oxidation is performed to the substrate that forms a second oxidized layer. A conductive or semiconductive layer is deposited onto the second oxidized layer. An etch is performed to remove a portion of the first oxidized layer and a portion of the second oxidized layer to expose the protuberance.

    Abstract: The present invention relates generally to a new integrated Vacuum Microelectronic Device (VMD) and a method for making the same. Vacuum Microelectronic Devices require several unique three dimensional structures: a sharp field emission tip, accurate alignment of the tip inside a control grid structure in a vacuum environment, and an anode to collect electrons emitted by the tip. Also disclosed is a new structure and a process for forming diodes, triodes, tetrodes, pentodes and other similar structures. The final structure made can also be connected to other similar VMD devices or to other electronic devices.
