Abstract:
An electron-emitting device comprises a pair of oppositely disposed electrodes and an electroconductive film arranged between the electrodes and including a high resistance region. The high resistance region has a deposit containing carbon as a principal ingredient. The electron-emitting device can be used for an electron source of an image-forming apparatus of the flat panel type.
Abstract:
An electron emission device is provided which has sufficient on/off characteristics and is capable of efficiently emitting electrons with a low voltage. An electron emission device includes a substrate, a cathode electrode, a gate electrode, which are arranged on the substrate, an insulation layer covering the surface of the cathode electrode, and a dipole layer formed by terminating the surface of the insulation layer with hydrogen.
Abstract:
An image-forming device includes, in an envelope, an electron-emitting element for emitting an electron by applying a voltage between electrodes, an image-forming member for forming an image by irradiation with an electron beam emitted from the electron-emitting element, and a supporting member for supporting the envelope. The supporting member has an electroconductive film at an end portion and a side portion thereof, and is electrically connected through the electroconductive film to the electrode.

Abstract:
An electron emission apparatus can effectively suppress the adverse effect of electric discharges that can take place between the oppositely disposed electrodes of the apparatus to which a high voltage is applied by dividing the electrode adapted to have a higher electric potential into segments in order to reduce the electrostatic capacitance between the electrodes. In the case of an electron emission apparatus comprising electron-emitting devices, said plurality of electron-emitting devices are disposed such that the direction along which those that can be driven simultaneously are arranged is not parallel with the direction along which the electrode is divided into the electrode segments in order to reduce the variable range of the electric current that can flow in the segments.

Abstract:
A method for producing a film pattern comprises a step of forming a resin film on a substrate surface; a step of incorporating into the resin film a constituent of a conductive film or a semiconductor film; a step of irradiating the resin film with an ultraviolet light; and a step of heating the resin film at a temperature not lower than a decomposition temperature of the resin to form a conductive film or a semiconductor film on the substrate, whereby the resin does not easily generate decomposition residues to improve precision and quality of the produced film pattern.
Abstract:
Provided is a method for producing a pattern of an electroconductive member, comprising: a step of forming a resin film on a substrate surface; a step of incorporating the first metal component into the resin by applying to the resin a liquid which contains a complex of a first metal component, which contains also a second metal component different from the first component, and to which a compound forming a complex with the second metal component is contacting or contacted preliminary; and a step of baking the resin film to form the electroconductive member from the first metal component incorporated into the resin film. Thus, the second metal component is prevented from adversely affecting the first metal component to be incorporated into the resin.
