Abstract:
A reflective emission pixel device comprising:a substrate layer; at least one first electrode deposited on said substrate; at least one second electrode deposited on said first surface adjacently disposed from a corresponding one of said at least one first electrode; at least one third electrode deposited on said substrate adjacently disposed from a corresponding one of said at least one first electrode an emitter layer deposited on said at least one third electrode having an edge for electron emission extending above said at least one first electrode, means to apply a first potential applied to said at least one first electrode to attract electrons from said emitter layer to said first electrode; means to apply a second potential applied to said at least one corresponding second electrode to attract electrons from a corresponding first electrode; and a transparent electrode layer oppositely opposing said substrate layer and electrically isolated from said emitter layer, said transparent electrode layer having means to apply a third potential to attract electrons from said first electrode.
