Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The present invention relates to an electron emission element having a first electrode and a second electrode formed in an emitter portion. Background technique
[0002] Currently, an electron emission element has a cathode electrode and an anode electrode, and is used in various applications such as a field emission display (FED) or a backlight. When used in an FED, a plurality of electron emission elements are arranged two-dimensionally, and a plurality of phosphors are respectively arranged to face these electron emission elements at predetermined intervals.
[0003] Conventional examples of such electron emission elements include, for example, Patent Documents 1 to 5, but they have the following problems: because none of them use a dielectric in the emitter portion, forming or micromachining is required between opposing electrodes, and for electron emission High voltage must be applied for emission, and the panel manufacturing process is complicat...
