Patent ID: 6946787

Claim:
A field emission display device, comprising: first and second substrates provided opposing one another with a predetermined gap therebetween; at least one gate electrode formed in a predetermined pattern on the first substrate; cathode electrodes formed in a predetermined pattern, the cathode electrodes including openings that are formed where the cathode electrodes intersect the gate electrode; an insulation layer formed between the at least one gate electrode and the cathode electrodes; counter electrodes formed in the openings and with predetermined dimensions such that predetermined gaps are formed between the counter electrodes and the cathode electrodes; emitters contacting the cathode electrodes; at least one anode electrode formed on the second substrate opposing the first substrate; and phosphor layers formed in a predetermined pattern on the anode electrode; wherein two of the emitters are provided on opposite sides of each of the counter electrodes, each of the emitters including one long side in proximity to the corresponding counter electrode and two short sides contacting the corresponding cathode electrode.
