Fluorescent printer head using a single filamentary cathode

摘要

A fluorescent printer head capable of rendering luminance of dot-like anodes along its main scanning direction uniform and stable to improve quality of printing in an optical printer. The fluorescent printer head includes dot-like anodes constituting a luminous area, control electrodes having apertures formed at positions corresponding to the dot-like anodes, and at least one filamentary cathode stretched above the control electrode extending along the middle portion of the luminous area.
