Problems solved by technology

[0008] However, there is a problem that, in the case where the surface conduction type electron-emitting device in the related art is driven, when the sheet resistance of the conductive film is small, fluctuations in the amount of electron emission occur (the fluctuation of the electron emission current occurs in a short time) Phenomenon)
In an image display device using an electron-emitting device, there are cases where a change in brightness or a fluctuation in brightness of adjacent pixels, which is considered to be due to a fluctuation in the amount of electron emission, occurs
Therefore, it is difficult to obtain high-definition and good display images

Abstract

The invention discloses an electron-emitting device and an image display apparatus. The image display apparatus uses electron-emitting devices each having: a pair of device electrodes on an insulating substrate; and an electroconductive film connecting the device electrodes. The insulating substrate has concave portions in a gap between the device electrodes. The film has opening portions having a first gap in a region adjacent to the opening portions along such a gap. A carbon film having a second gap is formed in the first gap and has extending portions extending from side surfaces of the concave portions toward the bottom. The extending portions of the adjacent carbon films are not coupled.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an electron emission device and an image display device using the electron emission device. Background technique [0002] As the electron-emitting device, there are electron-emitting devices of a field emission type, a surface conduction type, and the like. [0003] As a step of forming a surface conduction type electron-emitting device in the prior art, first, a pair of device electrodes is formed on an insulating substrate. Subsequently, the pair of device electrodes are connected through a conductive film. By applying a voltage between the device electrodes, a process called "energization forming" is performed for forming a first gap in a part of the conductive film. The energization forming operation is a step of supplying electric current to the conductive film, and forming a first gap in a part of the conductive film by Joule heat generated by the current. By the energization forming operation, a pair of conduc...
