Abstract

The method of driving a field emission display comprising the step of applying a potential between one or more gate wires positioned over a plurality of emitter lines of a cathode substrate and one of the plurality of emitter lines, wherein producing an electric field that releases electrons from a portion of the one of the plurality of emitter lines. For example, a positive voltage is applied to two adjacent gate wires with respect to the one of the plurality of emitter lines, wherein releasing the electrons from a portion of the one of the plurality of emitter lines between the two adjacent gate wires.
