Abstract:
An electron emitter includes a lower electrode formed on a glass substrate, an emitter section made of dielectric film formed on the lower electrode, and an upper electrode formed on the emitter section. A drive voltage for electron emission is applied between the upper electrode and the lower electrode. At least the upper electrode has a plurality of through regions through which the emitter section is exposed. The upper electrode has a surface which faces the emitter section in peripheral portions of the through regions and which is spaced from the emitter section.
Abstract:
A cathode for an electron tube formed by coating the base of the cathode for the electron tube with an alkaline-earth metal carbonate containing at least barium as the alkaline-earth metal, and thermally decomposing in a vacuum to generate an emitter mainly comprising an alkaline-earth metal oxide, wherein a mixture of two or more kinds of alkaline-earth metal carbonate crystalline particles having different shapes is used as the above mentioned alkaline-earth metal carbonate. Since the present invention can provide a cathode for electron tube having improved both cut-off drift and emission characteristic at the same time, it is useful as a cathode for the electron gun of a CRT, or a cathode for the electron gun of an electron microscope.

Abstract:
This disclosure is directed toward field emission surfaces, and is more particularly directed toward improvements in cold, low field, high current, low noise field emission devices and surfaces. Such devices are used in field emission display devices such as video displays and information displays. The device utilizes a cermet with graded concentration of insulative and conductive particles deposited on the truncated point of a conical emitter. The emission surface of the cermet is insensitive to gases that oxidize or poison the emission surface. Such gases and other contaminants emanate from a phosphor when the emission device is used in phosphor display devices. The field emission device is operated at lower potentials thereby reducing power requirements and minimizing heat dissipation requirements. Further, the field emission device which operates at lower field in order to reduce mechanically and temporally unstable emission sites which result in current bursts and current deficits at these sites. Still further, the field emission device incorporates internal resistors which provide series resistance to limit noise at affected emission areas thereby eliminating the need to limit noise by incorporating high-valued resistors, typically in series with the cathode terminal of the emission device, which reduce the potential to the entire emission surface and increasing potentials required to produce current sufficient to excite display phosphor.

Abstract:
In a directly heated cathode including a base formed of an alloy containing nickel as its principal component and coated with an oxide of an alkaline earth metal which emits electrons, a layer of a metal selected from the group consisting of nickel, cobalt, platinum and rhodium or of an alloy containing one of these metals as its principal component is formed on both surfaces of the base to one of which surfaces the coating of the oxide is applied, so as to thereby prevent the peeling-off of the coating of the oxide from the base. In order to avoid deformation of the base, a powder alloy containing tungsten and nickel as its principal components, a powder alloy containing molybdenum and nickel as its principal components or one of these powder alloys which is coated with nickel, cobalt or a cobalt-nickel alloy is deposited on the surface of the base to which the coating of the oxide is applied.
