    摘要: An electron-emitting device contains an electron focusing system (37 or 37A) formed with a base focusing structure (38 or 38A), a focus coating (39 or 39A), and an access conductor (106 or 116). The focus coating overlies the base focusing structure and extends into a focus opening (40). The access conductor is electrically coupled to the lower surface of the focus coating. A potential for controlling the focusing of electrons that travel through the focus opening is provided to the focus coating via the access conductor. The focus coating is typically formed by an angled deposition technique.

    摘要: Fabrication of an electron-emitting device entails providing an electron-emitting structure in which multiple sets of electron-emissive elements (24) overlying an emitter electrode (12) are arranged in a line extending generally in a specified direction. Each of a group of control electrodes (28) in the electron-emitting structure contain (a) a main control portion (30) penetrated by a control opening (34) that laterally circumscribes one of the sets of electron-emissive elements and (b) a gate portion (32) that extends across the control opening and has gate openings (36) through which the electron-emissive elements are exposed. Actinic material (38P) is provided over the control electrodes and processed to form a base focusing structure (38) penetrated by multiple focus openings (40) such that each focus opening is centered on a corresponding one of the control openings in the specified direction.

    摘要: An electron-emitting device contains an emitter electrode (12), a group of sets of electron-emitting elements (24), a group of control electrodes (28), and a focusing system (37) for focusing electrons emitted by the electron-emissive elements. The sets of electron-emissive elements are arranged generally in a line extending in a specified direction. Each control electrode has a main portion (30) and a gate portion (32). the electron-emissive elements are exposed through gate openings (36) in the gate portion. The main portion of each control electrode crosses over the emitter electrode and has a large control opening (34) which laterally circumscribes one of the sets of electron-emissive elements. The focusing system has a group of focus openings (40) located respectively above the control openings. Each control opening is largely centered on, or/and is no more than 50% as large as, the corresponding focus opening in the specified direction.

    摘要: A flat panel display and a method for forming a flat panel display. In one embodiment, the flat panel display includes a cathodic structure which is formed within an active area on a backplate. The cathodic structure includes a emitter electrode metal composed of strips of aluminum overlain by a layer of cladding material. The use of aluminum and cladding material to form emitter electrode metal gives emitter electrode metal segments which are highly conductive due to the high conductivity of aluminum. By using a suitable cladding material and processing steps, a bond between the aluminum and the cladding material is formed which has good electrical conductivity. In one embodiment, tantalum is used as a cladding material. Tantalum forms a bond with the overlying resistive layer which has good electrical conductivity. Thus, the resulting structure has very high electrical conductivity through the aluminum layer and high conductivity into the resistive layer. Electrode structures that use resistor material, chromium-containing material, nickel and vanadium alloy, and gold are also disclosed.

    摘要: A technique for creating openings in a polycarbonate film entails providing a liquid chemical formulation that contains polycarbonate material, a liquid that dissolves the polycarbonate, and possibly one or more other constituents. The liquid is typically capable of dissolving the polycarbonate to a concentration of at least 1% at 20.degree. C. and 1 atmosphere. Examples of the liquid include pyridine, a ring-substituted pyridine derivative, pyrrole, a ring-substituted pyrrole derivative, pyrrolidine, a pyrrolidine derivative, chlorobenzene, and cyclohexanone. A liquid film (36A) of the chemical formulation is formed over a substructure (30) and processed to remove the liquid, thereby converting the liquid film into a solid polycarbonate track layer (38). Charged particles (70) are passed through the track layer to form charged-particle tracks (72) at least partway through the layer. Apertures (74) are created through the track layer by a process that entails etching along the tracks. The aperture-containing polycarbonate track layer is typically employed in fabricating a gated electron-emitting device.

    摘要: Short circuit detection is performed on a plate structure (10) in which a group of first electrical conductors (32) are nominally electrically insulated from, and cross, a group of second electrical conductors (48). In particular, a magnetic current-sensing operation is performed on at least part of the conductors to produce current data indicative of how much, if any, current flows through each of at least part of the conductors. The current data is then examined to determined whether there appears to be a short circuit defect at any location where one of the first conductors crosses one of the second conductors.

    摘要: A probability analysis technique is performed on magnetically obtained current data to detect short circuit defects in a plate structure (10) in which a group of first electrical conductors (32) are nominally electrically insulated from and cross a group of second electrical conductors (48). In particular, a magnetic current-sensing operation is performed on at least part of the conductors to produce current data indicative of how much, if any, current flows through each of at least part of the conductors. A short circuit defect probability analysis is then applied to the current data in order to select a location where one of the first conductors crosses one of the second conductors as being most probable of having a short circuit defect.
