Abstract

L'invention concerne un dispositif d'affichage d'images comprenant un premier substrat (10) présentant une face fluorescente et un second substrat. Ce second substrat est placé face au premier substrat à distance de celui-ci et il est pourvu de sources d'électrons (18). Des pièces d'espacement (30a, 30b) sont disposées entre le premier et le second substrat pour supporter une charge de pression atmosphérique s'exerçant sur lesdits substrats. Les pointes de chaque pièce d'espacement au niveau du premier et du second substrat sont imprégnées d'une matière électriquement conductrice de façon à former des parties d'application de conductivité électrique (31a, 31b), respectivement.
