Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a flat screen anode of visualization. It applies more particularly to the making luminescent elements of an anode a color screen, such as a microtip color screen.
  • Figure 1 shows the structure of a flat screen microtips of the type to which the invention relates.
  • Such a microtip screen essentially consists a cathode 1 with microtips 2 and a grid 3 provided of holes 4 corresponding to the locations of the microtips 2.
  • Cathode 1 is placed opposite a cathodoluminescent anode 5 of which a glass substrate 6 constitutes the surface screen.
  • Cathode 1 is organized in columns and is made up, on a glass substrate 10, cathode conductors organized in mesh from a conductive layer.
  • the microtips 2 are made on a resistive layer 11 deposited on the cathode conductors and are arranged inside meshes defined by the cathode conductors.
  • the FIG. 1 partially representing the interior of a mesh, cathode conductors do not appear in this figure.
  • Cathode 1 is associated with grid 3 which is organized in lines. The intersection of a line in grid 3 and a column of cathode 1 defines a pixel.
  • This device uses the electric field created between cathode 1 and grid 3 so that electrons are extracts from microtips 2 to phosphor elements 7 of anode 5.
  • anode 5 is provided of alternating bands of phosphor elements 7r, 7b, 7g corresponding each one in a color (Red, Blue, Green). Groups are separated from each other by an insulator 8.
  • the phosphor elements 7 are deposited on electrodes 9, consisting of corresponding strips of a layer transparent conductor such as indium oxide and tin (ITO).
  • ITO indium oxide and tin
  • the sets of blue, red, green bands are alternately positively polarized with respect to the cathode 1, so that the electrons extracted from the microtips 2 of a cathode / grid pixel are alternately directed to the phosphor elements 7 facing each of the colors.
  • the phosphor 7 selection command (the phosphor 7g in figure 1) which must be bombarded by electrons from microdots 2 of cathode 1 requires ordering, selectively, the polarization of the phosphor elements 7 of anode 5, color by color.
  • FIG. 2 schematically illustrates a structure classic color screen anode. This figure partially represents, in elevation on the phosphor side, an anode 5 made according to known techniques. Strips 9 of electrodes anode, deposited on the substrate 6, are interconnected outside of the useful surface of the screen, by color of phosphor elements, to be connected to a control system (not represented). Two interconnection tracks 12 and 13, respectively anode electrodes 9g and 9b are produced for two of the three colors of phosphor elements. A diaper isolation 14 (shown in phantom in Figure 2) is deposited on interconnection track 13. A third interconnection track 15 is connected, via conductors 16 deposited on the insulation layer 14, at the strips 9r anode electrodes for the phosphor elements of the third color.
  • the rows of grid 3 are sequentially polarized at a potential of the order of 80 volts while the strips of phosphor elements (for example 7g in Figure 1) to be excited are biased under a voltage of the order of 400 volts, the other bands (for example 7r and 7b in FIG. 1) being at zero potential.
  • the columns of the cathode 1, whose potential represents for each row of grid 3 the brightness of the pixel defined by the intersection of the cathode column and the grid row in the color considered, are brought to respective potentials between a maximum emission potential and a potential no emission (for example, 0 and 30 respectively volts).
  • the choice of the values of the polarization potentials is related to the characteristics of phosphor elements 7 and microtips 2.
  • the potential difference between the anode and the cathode is related to the inter-electrode distance.
  • screen brightness which means that we are looking for a the greatest possible distance between electrodes.
  • the structure of the inter-electrode space which has spacers (not shown) capable of creating zones shadow on the screen if they are too large, prevents this inter-electrode distance from being increased.
  • the inter-electrode space of a conventional screen is therefore about 0.2 mm. This leads to choosing a voltage value anode-cathode which is critical from a training standpoint electric arcs.
  • Destructive electric arcs can then occur at the slightest dimensional irregularity of the distance between a microtip, or the grid layer, phosphor elements of the anode. Such irregularities are, moreover, inevitable given the small dimensions and techniques used to carry out the anode and the grid cathode.
  • the resistive layer 11 makes it possible to limit the formation of destructive short circuits between microtips and the grid.
  • arcs can occur between the grid 3 and those of the phosphor elements 7 of the anode which are polarized to attract the electrons emitted by microtips 2 (for example the 7g phosphors in figure 1). Arcs can also occur between two bands neighbors of phosphor elements (for example 7g and 7r in figure 1) due to the potential difference between these two bands.
  • the invention aims to overcome these drawbacks by proposing a flat screen display anode which removes the risk of arcing between the anode and the grid or between two neighboring bands of phosphor elements the anode, without affecting the brightness of the screen.
  • the present invention provides a flat screen display anode of the type comprising at least one set of strips of phosphor elements deposited on separate strips of corresponding electrodes of the others by an insulator open to the right of the strips of elements phosphors, and at least one interconnection conductor strips of electrodes of said set, each strip of electrodes consisting of a resistive strip intended to receive a strip of phosphor elements and at least one first strip of polarization which is parallel to it and which joins said conductor interconnection, said polarization band having low resistivity compared to that of said resistive strip to which it is associated.
  • each resistive strip is associated with two strips of parallel polarizations that frame it, each polarization band joining said interconnection conductor.
  • said resistive strips are made of non-stoichiometric oxide transparent and electrically conductive, their resistivity being fixed by the oxygen level that the oxide contains.
  • said resistive bands and said bias bands are in the same material whose resistivity is higher important in a central area intended to receive the tapes phosphor elements only in lateral areas joining said interconnection conductor.
  • said insulator serves as a mask for increasing the resistivity of said resistive strips by annealing under atmosphere oxygen.
  • the resistivity of said resistive strips is fixed by the thickness of these strips.
  • said insulator serves as an etching mask for a process of reduction in thickness of said resistive strips.
  • the anode has three sets of resistive strips alternating carrying phosphor elements each corresponding to one color and at least three interconnection conductors polarization bands associated with the bands resistives of the same color.
  • all resistive bands associated with the same track interconnection have the same resistivity.
  • said resistive strips are made of indium oxide or of tin.
  • Figure 3 is a cross-sectional view of some bands of phosphors constituting a flat screen anode according to a first embodiment of the invention.
  • a feature of the present invention is that the strips 17 of anode electrodes each consist of a resistive strip 18 supporting phosphor elements 7 and at least one polarization strip 19, parallel.

  • Each band 18 is framed by two polarization bands 19 highly conductive, for example aluminum, in copper or gold. For a color screen, these bands 19 are connected by one of their ends to an interconnection track (not shown) strips of phosphor elements 7 of the same color.
  • a feature of the present invention is that the bias strips 19 are made in such a way that they have a low resistivity compared to the resistivity of the material of the strips 18. Thus, the strips resistives 18 create lateral access resistance to each screen pixel.
  • the intrinsic properties of a transparent oxide layer are used. It may be, for example, indium oxide (In 2 O x ), tin oxide (SnO x ) or indium tin oxide (ITO).
  • the oxide layer is optimized in thickness and oxygen level to give resistance to each band 18 and the desired transparency.
  • the oxide used is preferably an indium oxide or tin.
  • An advantage of using such an oxide is that it is easy to control its resistivity to give the strip the desired resistance. Indeed, the resistivity of such band increases with the oxygen rate.
  • annealing is carried out under oxygen atmosphere at a temperature of the order of 300 to 400 ° C.
  • indium or tin oxide has better transparency than indium oxide and tin (ITO).
  • Figures 5 and 6 illustrate two other modes of production of an anode according to the invention. According to these modes of realization, the resistive and bias bands are all made of transparent, electrically conductive oxide.
  • Figure 5 is a cross-sectional view of some bands of phosphors constituting a flat screen anode according to a third embodiment of the invention.

  • the difference in resistivity is obtained by a different oxygen rate from the lateral zones 19 'and the central area 18.
  • the layer isolation 8 for example in silicon oxide, which is opened directly above the central zones 18 intended to receive the strips phosphor elements 7.
  • the layer 8 then serves as a mask to increase the resistivity of the central zones 18 by increasing their oxygen level, by annealing in an oven in an atmosphere of oxygen at a temperature of the order of 400 ° C.
  • Figure 6 is a cross-sectional view of some bands of phosphors constituting a flat screen anode according to a fourth embodiment of the invention.
  • the anode is made up of strips of electrodes 17 'in transparent and electrically conductive oxide including a central zone 18 ', having a high resistivity, plays the role of resistive strip and which is framed by two lateral zones 19 'with minimal resistivity and playing the role of polarization bands.
  • the resistivity is identical for the central 18 'and lateral zones 19 'and preferably corresponds to a minimum resistivity.
  • the significant resistance of the central zones 18 ' is obtained by giving these areas a small thickness.
  • the isolation layer 8 serves as an engraving mask for the central zones 18 ′.
  • the polarization bands have been represented in the form of metal strips, for example in aluminium.

  • FIG. 8 represents the equivalent electrical diagram of a microtip color screen provided with an anode according to the invention.
  • This interconnection electric is similar to that exposed in relation to the Figure 2, except that the interconnection tracks 21 connect the polarization bands 19, or 19 ', and no longer directly the strips 18, or 18 ', receiving the phosphor elements 7.
  • the addressing of an anode according to the invention can be carried out in a conventional manner.
  • each strip of phosphor elements 7r, 7g or 7b is individually protected against electric arcs by a resistance Ra series between this strip and the interconnection track 21 with which it is associated.
  • the resistance Ra brought by the resistive strip 18, or 18 ′ is of such a value that limits the current in the electrode strip 17, or 17 ', to one given value chosen to avoid the appearance of electric arcs destructive, without causing a significant fall of the anode voltage.

  • the microdots of cathode 1 in the form of a microtip 2 per pixel then that they are in reality several thousand per screen pixels. It thus appears a resistance Rk which corresponds to the resistive layer 11 between the cathode conductors and microtips.
  • This resistance Rk makes it possible to homogenize electronic emission of microtips 2 and avoid the appearance short circuits between grid 3 and the microtips 2.
  • the resistance Ra provided by each resistive strip 18, or 18 ', is electrically in series with this resistor Rk globalized at the pixel level.
  • the value of the resistance Ra can be chosen significantly higher than the resistance value Rk globalized at the pixel level without causing a voltage drop too large in resistive bands.

  • Ra resistances do not affect the switching speed of anode lines since the resistance of the bias strips remains low (a few k ⁇ maximum), the product of their resistance by the capacity of the anode lines (a few nanofarad) corresponds to a time constant much lower than the switching time of the anode (a few milliseconds).
  • Ra resistance is the same for all screen pixels. In effect, for a given pixel, this resistance is independent the distance between this pixel and the interconnection track 21, provided that the resistivity of the bias strips 19, or 19 ', or weak.
