Abstract

The present invention provides an image display capable of enhancing a production yield. The image display comprises a display device including a first plate which has a plurality of electron-emitter elements each having a structure comprised of a base electrode, an insulating layer and a top electrode stacked on one another in this order, the electron-emitter element emitting electrons from the surface of the top electrode when a voltage of positive polarity is applied to the top electrode; a plurality of first electrodes for respectively applying driving voltages to the base electrodes of the electron-emitter elements lying in a row (or column) direction; and a plurality of second electrodes for respectively applying driving voltages to the top electrodes of the electron-emitter elements lying in the column (or row) direction, a frame component, and a second plate having phosphors, wherein a space surrounded by the first plate, the frame component and the second plate is brought into vacuum. In the display apparatus, the at least one electron-emitter element includes the base electrode and the top electrode, at least one of which is connected to the first electrode or the second …
