A cold cathode electronic device capable of removing pollution of emitter electrodes occurring during manufacturing of the device, to thereby enhance emission characteristics of the emitter electrodes and luminous efficiency of a phosphor layer.

A method for manufacturing a conductive thin film patterned substrate which is capable of being practiced at a reduced cost without causing environmental pollution while eliminating any troublesome after-treatment. An insulating substrate made of glass or the like is formed thereon with an InSnO, SnSbO, ZnAlO or Al thin film. Then, a phosphate low-softening glass paste layer is formed on the thin film. A portion of the thin film contiguous to an insulating layer made of the low-softening glass paste melts into a glass region to form an insulating layer region, so that a conductive thin film region may be patterned as electrodes.

A flourescent luminous type display device capable of providing display at increased luminance while being simplified in structure. An insulating substrate constituting a vacuum airtight envelope is laminatedly formed on an inner surface thereof with cathode electrodes and emitters in order. Another insulating substrate is laminatedly formed on an inner surface thereof with an anode electrode and phosphor layers. The phosphor layers contain a secondary electron emission material. When a switch is closed, electron emitted from the emitters are permitted to be impinged on the phosphor layers, leading to luminescence thereof. The anode electrode merely has a pulse-like drive signal applied thereto through a capacitor, however, secondary electrons emitted from the phosphor layers permit the luminescence to be maintained even after stop of the drive signal.
