A flat panel display is provided. The flat panel display includes a cathode panel in which a plurality of electron emission areas are provided on a support, and an anode panel in which a plurality of phosphor areas and an anode electrode are provided on a substrate. The cathode panel and the anode panel are joined together at their periphery by a joining member. The anode electrode includes an anode electrode central section covering the phosphor areas, and an anode electrode peripheral section surrounding the anode electrode central section and extending from the anode electrode central section and being provided in contact with the substrate. The average thickness of the anode electrode peripheral section is smaller than the average thickness of the anode electrode central section.

Flat panel display, method of manufacturing anode panel for the flat panel display, and method of manufacturing cathode panel for the flat panel display

A flat-panel display includes a cathode panel including a plurality of electron emission regions, and an anode panel including a fluorescent layer and an anode electrode, both panels being bonded together in a peripheral region and holding a vacuum space therebetween; a plurality of spacers disposed between the cathode panel and the anode panel; a high-resistance layer provided between the anode panel and each of the spacers; and a conductor layer provided on a portion of each of the spacers which contacts the cathode panel.

Flat-panel display

A flat-type display device is provided. The flat-type panel display includes a cathode panel having a plurality of electron emitter areas formed on a support; and an anode panel having formed on a substrate a plurality of fluorescent regions and an anode electrode covering at least the fluorescent regions, in which the cathode panel and the anode panel are joined together at their edges with a joint member in between. In the display device, the anode panel has formed on the anode electrode an electron absorbing layer for absorbing electrons from any one of the fluorescent regions and the anode electrode or both, and the anode panel has an adhesion improving layer formed between the anode electrode and the electron absorbing layer.
