Abstract:
1. An image display apparatus comprising: a rear plate including thereon first and second electron-emitting devices each having a pair of device electrodes disposed in opposition to each other sandwiching a gap therebetween, and an electron-emitting region between the pair of device electrodes; a face plate having a phosphor; and a plate shaped spacer disposed between the rear plate and the face plate, closer to the first electron-emitting device than the second electron-emitting device, wherein a longitudinal direction of the gap of the first electron-emitting device is inclined at a first inclination angle to a direction perpendicular to a longitudinal direction of the spacer, a longitudinal direction of the gap of the second electron-emitting device is inclined at a second inclination angle to the direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the spacer, and the second inclination angle is larger than the first inclination angle.
