In the case of a flat panel display having an vacuum envelope in which electron sources are formed in a matrix, it is difficult to control the distance between the front substrate and the rear substrate in and around the effective screen area. Spacers are arranged both in and around the effective display area 6. Inner spacers 12 are arranged in the effective display area 6 while outer spacers 13 are arranged around the effective display area 6. The distance between the front substrate 2 and the front substrate 1 in the peripheral area is controlled by the outer spacers 13. This can solve various problems including the electrification of spacers 12 which may occur if the distance between the front substrate 2 and the front substrate 1 is not uniform.

A nonvolatile semiconductor memory device includes a storage element which is programmed with information by breaking an insulating film by application of electrical stress to the storage element, a control switch which controls the application of electrical stress to the storage element, and a control circuit which controls conduction/nonconduction of the control switch. The device further includes a power supply circuit including a voltage generation circuit which generates a first voltage to cause the electrical stress in program operation, a sensing circuit which senses that the insulating film is broken down, and a counter circuit which controls the control circuit to interrupt the application of electrical stress to the storage element when a given period of time elapses after the sensing circuit senses that the insulating film is broken down.
