Abstract: A thin-film electron emitter device is provided with a multilayer structure including upper and lower electrodes with an insulative or dielectric layer being sandwiched therebetween. The upper or "top" electrode is itself formed as a multilayer structure. For example, in one embodiment, the upper electrode is formed as a three layer lamination of an interface layer formed on the insulative layer, an intermediate or "middle" layer stacked on the interface layer and a surface layer stacked on or above the middle layer. The middle layer is made of a chosen material which is greater in sublimation enthalpy than the surface layer and yet less than the interface layer. When appropriate, the surface layer may be omitted providing two-layer structure rather than the three-layer structure.

Abstract: A cold cathode (3) in the form of a solid thin film component is the basis for electron-optical terminal image devices. The thin-film structure is made up of a base electrode (5), e.g., in the form of a bundle of parallel strips, an insulating film (6), a semiconductor film (7) and a covering electrode (8), e.g., also a bundle of parallel strips but running perpendicularly to the base electrode (5) bundle. This set of layers borne on a substrate plate (4), is in an evacuated casing (2) and is opposite a fluorescent screen (12) or a light emitter (15), the metalized coating (11) of which forms the counter-pole for the electron acceleration chamber (9). The main applications of such electron-optical terminal image devices are embodiments as matrix-addressed flat displays, image converters or write/read lines.

Abstract: A flat panel display includes a ferroelectric thin film between first and second spaced apart electrodes. The ferroelectric thin film emits electrons upon application of a predetermined voltage between the first and second spaced apart electrodes. The electrons are emitted in an electron emission path and impinge upon a luminescent layer such as a phosphor layer, which produces luminescence upon impingement upon the emitter electrodes. The ferroelectric thin film is preferably about 2 .mu.m or less in thickness and is preferably a polycrystalline ferroelectric thin film. More preferably, the thin ferroelectric film is a highly oriented, polycrystalline thin ferroelectric film. Most preferably, highly oriented ferroelectric thin film has a preferred (001) crystal orientation and is about 2 .mu.m or less in thickness. A flat panel display may be formed of arrays of such display elements. Top and bottom electrodes or side electrodes may be used. The display may be formed using conventional microelectronic fabrication steps.

Abstract: An MIM type of electron emission element having a thin insulating film formed below an electron emission region of a metal layer, with that electron emission region of the metal layer consisting of an array of thick and thin portions, distributed throughout the electron emission region. Improved efficiency and uniformity of of emission are obtained, due to the low resistance of the thick portions, which apply a supply voltage to the thin portions of the metal layer, while the thin portions can be made sufficiently thin to maximize the electron emission.
