A plurality of electron-emitting devices carried on a device substrate are arranged vis-a-vis an acceleration electrode carried on a face plate. The device substrate and the face plate, together with side walls disposed therebetween, constitute an envelope the inner space of which is kept under vacuum. A number of spacers are also disposed between the device substrate and the face plate within the inner space. The electric potential Va applied to the acceleration electrode, the distance l between the electron-emitting devices and the corresponding respective spacers, and the distance d between the electron-emitting devices and the acceleration electrode satisfy the relationship, Va·l2/d2>|&Dgr;Vsat|/(2·&agr;·&bgr;), where &agr; and &bgr; are constants determined from several factors and &Dgr;Vsat is the potential deviation of the spacer surface under charged conditions from that under uncharged conditions.

An electron beam apparatus including a hermetic container provided with an electron source, in which, when a first member is arranged in the hermetic container, at least part of the first member is coated with a film, and the film is configured in such a manner that it includes two regions, a first region and a second region different in electron density from the first region and the second region forms a network in the first region. This three-dimensional network structure allows a member being charged to be preferably controlled. Thereby, it is possible to control the effects of a member being charged which is used in an electron beam apparatus.

There are provided an electron source apparatus capable of suppressing variations in electron emission state from electron-emitting devices even with an arrangement using spacers (9), and an image forming apparatus using the electron source apparatus. A plurality of row-direction wiring lines (8) and a plurality of column-direction wiring lines (6) are formed on a substrate (1) so as to cross each other. An electron-emitting device made up of device electrodes (2, 3), a conductive film (4), and an electron-emitting portion 5 is formed at each intersection between the row-direction wiring line (8) and the column-direction wiring line (6). The spacers (9) are arranged on some of the row-direction wiring lines (8). The column-direction wiring lines (6) are respectively connected to controlled constant current sources (221a, 221b, 221c) serving as current sources capable of outputting desired current values. The respective row-direction wiring lines (8) are connected to a voltage application means constituted by a voltage source (223) and a switching circuit (222) for selecting the row-direction wiring lines (8) while sequentially scanning them.
摘要:
A spacer on which static electricity is restricted and an electron beam apparatus in which the spacer is provided. In the electron beam apparatus comprising an electron source provided with electron emission devices, a face plate provided with anodes and spacers installed between the electron source and the face plate, unevenness is formed on the surface of the spacer substrate, and further a thin film which has a smaller thickness than a roughness. This makes possible the restriction of incident angle multiplication coefficient for the primary electrons whose energy is lower than the second cross-point energy of a resistive film. The electron beam apparatus provided with the above spacer is excellent in display definition and long-term reliability since the displacement of light emission points and the creeping discharge accompanying the static electricity can be restricted due to the spacer.
摘要:
A support member (20) for maintaining the distance between a face plate (30) and a rear plate (31) is interposed between the face plate (30) and the rear plate (31). An insulating film is formed on the support member (20) or its surface. An intermediate layer (21) is formed at a portion near the rear plate (31). The intermediate layer (21) is set at a low resistance and the same potential as that of the rear plate (31). As a result, an electron beam emitted from an electron-emitting portion near the support member (20) follows an orbit which is directed temporarily away from the support member and then comes close to the support member near the face plate (30) due to the steady charge-up of the support member. Then, the electron beam is irradiated on a defined position on the face plate (30).

A plurality of control devices may control the camera through the communications system. When one of the control devices is in control of the camera through the communications system, the other control devices are inhibited from controlling the camera.
摘要:
In an image forming apparatus, a support member (50) for maintaining the distance between a face plate (30) and a rear plate (31) is interposed between the face plate (30) and the rear plate (31). An intermediate layer (52) is formed at apportion near the face plate (30). The intermediate layer (52) is a low-resistance film, and is set to have almost the same potential as that of the face plate (30). As a result, an electron beam from an electron-emitting portion near the support member (50) follows an orbit which steadily comes close to the support member near the face plate. By setting the interval between electron-emitting devices adjacent to each other via the support member to be larger than the interval between devices adjacent to each other without the mediacy of the support member, the electron beam is irradiated on a proper position on the face plate (30).

A liquid crystal device is constituted by disposing a display layer between a pair of electrode plates. The display layer comprises a mesomorphic polymer and a low-molecular weight mesomorphic compound. The mesomorphic polymer may preferably be a main chain-type ferroelectric mesomorphic polymer having an ester linkage or a mesomorphic polymer derived from a polymerizable mesomorphic compound. The display layer may preferably comprise a ferroelectric mesomorphic polymer having a dielectric anisotropy .DELTA..epsilon. of -3.0 or below and a low-molecular weight mesomorphic compound incompatible with the mesomorphic polymer and having a positive dielectric anisotropy.
