An image formation apparatus is disclosed which includes, within an
enclosure configured by a pair of substrates placed face to face and an
external frame placed between the substrates, an electron source placed
on one of the pair of substrates, an image formation material placed on
the other substrate, and spacers placed between the substrates,
characterized in that the spacers and the external frame is conductive
and device is provided for electrically connecting the spacers and the
external frame so that the equipotential surfaces between the spacers and
the external frame are quasi-parallel when driven.
