Method of manufacturing an image display apparatus by supplying current to seal the image display apparatus

摘要

An image display apparatus includes an envelope which has a front substrate and a rear substrate opposed to each other and individually having peripheral edge portions sealed together. A sealed portion is sealed by a sealing member. the sealing member has electrical conductivity and melts when supplied with current. After the sealing member in the sealed portion is supplied with current and melted during manufacture, the current supply is stopped to cool and solidify the sealing member, whereupon the respective peripheral edge portions of the front substrate and the rear substrate are selected together.
