A field emitter includes a cathode, a field emission point part, a first anode, a charge storing plate, and a second anode. The field emission point part faces the first anode and is disposed at a first surface of and electrically connected to the cathode. The charge storing plate is disposed at a second surface, opposite the first surface, of the cathode. The second anode faces the second surface of the cathode. The charge storing plate is interposed between the second anode and the second surface of the cathode. Even if substantially the same electric field is formed in the field emitter as in a field emitter without the charge storing plate, the field emitter having the charge storing plate induces a more effective field emission current than the field emitter without the charge storing plate.
A field emitter comprising:
A method of operating a field emitter including a cathode, a field emission point part disposed on a first surface of the cathode and electrically connected to the cathode, a first anode facing the field emission point part, a charge storing plate disposed at a second surface of the cathode, and a second anode facing the second surface of the cathode and interposing the charge storing plate between the second anode and the second surface of the cathode, the method comprising:
A method of enhancing field emission of a field emitter, the field emitter including a cathode, a field emission point part disposed on a first surface of the cathode, and a first anode facing the first surface of the cathode, the method comprising:
