A field emission display with a separated upper electrode structure is provided.
The field emission display includes: a lower substrate; lower electrodes arranged
as stripes on the lower substrate; a field emitter array including a plurality
of emitters arranged at a predetermined interval on each of the lower electrodes;
an upper substrate which faces the lower substrate; upper electrodes arranged as
stripes on the upper substrate to intersect the lower electrodes; and a phosphor
array including a plurality of phosphors arranged on the upper electrodes, each
phosphor pair of different colors being aligned with a respective one of the emitters,
wherein an upper electrode aligned with each emitter is comprised of first and
second upper electrodes connected to a respective phosphor pair of different colors.
Such an upper electrode arrangement can be achieved through simple processes. In
addition, a cross-talk phenomenon is prevented with the upper electrode structure
and image quality is enhanced.
