The method includes: respectively connecting first current control circuit devices for current path formation to a plurality of electric field emission devices; commonly connecting a second current control circuit device to the first current control circuit devices to commonly control the first current control circuit devices; and driving the first current control circuit devices at different timings when the second current control circuit device is driven.
Abstract:
A field emission device and a method of driving the multi-electrode field emission device having a single driving power source are disclosed. The field emission device includes a cathode electrode, one or more gate electrodes, a voltage division unit, and a power source unit. The cathode electrode is figured such that at least one emitter is formed thereon. The gate electrodes are disposed between an anode electrode and the cathode electrode, and each have one or more openings through which electrons emitted from the emitter can pass. The voltage division unit has one or more divider resistors, and divides a voltage applied from the power source unit using the divider resistors and then applies partial voltages to the one or more gate electrodes. The power source unit includes a single power source, and applies the voltage to the voltage division unit.
Abstract:
An X-ray tube is provided. The X-ray tube includes a cathode electrode which is disposed in one end of a vacuum container and includes an emitter emitting an electron; a gate electrode which is disposed in the vacuum container to be adjacent to the cathode electrode; an anode electrode which is disposed in the vacuum container of the other end of a direction in which the vacuum container extends and inclines with respect to the cathode electrode; and a focusing electrode which is disposed in the vacuum container along an inner circumference surface of the vacuum container between the gate electrode and the anode electrode. The focusing electrode has an opening of which a plan cross section has a maximum width and a minimum width different from each other.
