Display panel with electron-emitting devices on substrates and cathode and anode electrodes

摘要

The front glass substrate and the back glass substrate are placed opposite each other with display cells in between. MIM electron-emitting devices each structured by the opposed cathode electrode and gate electrode sandwiching an insulator layer are arranged in matrix form on the inner face of the front glass substrate. An anode electrode and phosphor layers emitting visible light by being excited by ultraviolet light are provided on the inner face of the back glass substrate. The display cells are filled with an ultraviolet-light-emitting gas generating ultraviolet light by being excited by electrons.
