Abstract
A plurality of parallel, planar, area electron multipliers are mounted on a substrate having a plurality of electrical conductors in a coded pattern and a planar electron source thereon. Each multiplier comprises a plurality of dynode members, at least one of which is addressable, for controlling the generation of a linear electron beam which defines one video line in a flat image display device. Random or sequential generation of video lines is accomplished by generating unique combinations of electron repelling and accelerating voltages which are applied to the addressable dynode members through the coded electron conductors.
