Abstract:
An ultraviolet light generating target 20 includes a substrate 21 made of sapphire, quartz, or rock crystal; and a light-emitting layer 22 that is provided on the substrate 21 and that generates ultraviolet light upon receiving an electron beam. The light-emitting layer 22 includes powdered or granular Pr:LuAG crystals. By using such a light-emitting layer 22 as the target, the ultraviolet light generating efficiency can be increased more remarkably than when a Pr:LuAG single crystal film is used.

The field emission lamp has a simple structure, thereby having an enhanced production rate and a reduced cost.
Abstract:
An electron emitting source 6 is covered with a cathode mask 20 whose opening areas are substantially the same as those in a grid electrode 10, so that the areas for which the electrons are emitted from the electron emitting source 6 can substantially be the same as the opening areas in the grid electrode 10. Thus, substantially all the electrons emitted from these areas can be ensured to pass through opening portions 11 in the grid electrode 10 so as to be effective electrons that can contribute to light emission. In this way, power loss at the grid electrode 10 can be reduced. At the same time, harmful metallic sputtering caused at the grid electrode 10 toward a cathode electrode 5 can be reliably prevented, whereby damages on the cathode electrode can be avoided.

Each cell includes a light-emitting layer which is formed between the first and second electrode layers. The panel also includes a plurality of contacts, each of which electrically couples at least one of the first or second scan lines to a corresponding one of the second electrode layers. One or more of the contacts have a dimension which is different from a dimension of one of the display cells.

A field emission electron source capable of achieving large current density is provided at low cost with good productivity. An insulating layer is formed on a substrate and has one or more openings; and an extraction electrode is formed on the insulating layer. In one or more of the openings, a plurality of emitters, each of which emits an electron by an electric field from the extraction electrode, are formed on the substrate.
Abstract:
A field electron emission material is created by applying a silica precursor to graphite particles (11); processing the silica precursor to produce amorphous silica (12) which is doped and/or is heavily defective, and disposing the graphite particles (11) upon an electrically conductive surface (14) of a substrate (13) such that they are at least partially coated with the amorphous silica (12).
Abstract:
A carbon fiber mixed paper 8 obtained by mixing a fiber blend 7, which is obtained by knitting a carbon fiber and a glass fiber, into a paper material is used as the material for an anode that opposes to an electron emission cathode. A phosphor is applied onto this carbon fiber mixed paper 8, and further, an electrode 9 is provided. The present invention reduces heat generation at the anode as much as possible and enables uniform illumination without providing a diffuser. Moreover, the present invention does not require an electrode made of a transparent conductive film.
