First Claim
Patent Images
1. An electronic device comprising:
- an array of field emission cathodes providing an electron emitting surface;
a display panel having a face including an anode opposing said surface; and
a plurality of prebaked spacers of uniform height of an organic polymer and substantially free of volatile material, said spacers extending between said surface of said face;
said electron emitting surface and said display panel being sandwiched together with said spacers defining a space therebetween, said space being subjected to a vacuum during emission of electrons from said field emitting surface to said display panel.
