Normally, the gate electrode can be fabricated with screen printing methods and a channels matrix can be fabricated by two- faced chemical corrosion. By adjusting the etch time and the concentration of acid in the process, different shapes of the tunnels can be obtained. The size and morphology of channels are observed by a scanning electron microscope (SEM), and the ingredients of the corrosion solution are detected by infrared ray (IR) analysis. Voltage is added to the triode structure for obtaining the brightness image of the spot on the screen. Eventually, the electron trace pulling from cathode to anode under an electric field is obtained by simulation. It is concluded that the simulation results accord with the experimental results which realize the optimized triode structure.展开更多
