Abstract
A field emission display apparatus has an emitter plate having a plurality of column conductors intersecting a plurality of row conductors , and electron emitters at the intersection of each of the row and column conductors. An anode plate is adjacent to the emitter plate , the anode plate comprising conductive stripes which are alternately covered by material luminescing in the three primary colors. The conductive stripes covered by the same luminescent material are electrically interconnected to form comb-like structures corresponding to each of the colors. The anode plate contains an active region and the buses have a non-uniform width.
