Abstract: A field emission device (100) including a substrate (130), an emitter layer (106), a spacer layer (104) and a gate layer (102). In one preferred embodiment, the emitter layer (106) is made of a resistive material, and has a side end (120) that has an edge (122). The spacer layer (104) is on and over only a portion of the emitter layer (106) to expose the edge (122). The gate layer (102), on the spacer layer (104), also has a side end (128) that is tapered to form a wedge (129) with an edge. In one application, the device (100) is used in a flat panel display (90), with a screen (124). The screen (124) is at a selected positive voltage and is positioned above the gate layer (102). When a selected potential difference is applied between the emitter layer (106) and the gate layer (102), an electron-extraction field is established between the edge (132) of the gate layer (102) and the edge (122) of the emitter layer (106) to extract electrons from the edge (122) of the emitter layer (106). Then, the electrons are attracted to the screen (124). The wedge (129) reduces the amount of electrons collected at the gate and increases the efficiency of the device. The resistive nature of the emitter layer (106) enhances the uniformity of the electrons emitted along the edge (122) of the emitter layer (106).

Abstract: A method for maximizing the interfacial properties of sensors (10), such as
spin valve and GMR sensors (10), used in storage devices, comprises selecting
the materials for ferromagnetic layers (FM1, FM2) and for electrically
conductive spacers (12) that are interposed between the ferromagnetic layers

conductive spacer (12) material provides a relatively low resistivity and/or a
large mean free path. The sensors (10) experience greater chemical and
thermal stability, are corrosion resistant, and realize an increased signal output.

Abstract: A digital angle conversion method is described in which a rotating signal is
introduced into a  sin·cos  multiplier (2) to obtain a first output signal  sin( - )·f(t) .
The first output signal  sin( - )·f(t)  is synchronously rectified to remove an exciting
component f(t) so as to obtain a second output signal  sin( - ) . A digital angle output
() is obtained by a voltage controlled oscillator (VCO5) and a one-turn counter (6).
The arrangement of respective sections can be made as a monolithic semiconductor. In
contrast, in a conventional digital angle conversion method, the constituent parts
include analog circuitry. Thus, the entire arrangement is not easily made as a
monolithic semiconductor, and low price, light weight, and high reliability cannot be
easily obtained. In addition, the high-speed tracking ability of known circuitry is
limited.
