Schematic design of a complex thin-film luminescent screen usable for vacuum fluorescent and field emission display

Based on the facts related to solid-state cathodoluminescence, mixed excitation, and serial excitation recently discovered in our laboratory, a fundamental schematic design and a series of different schematic elaborated designs are proposed for protection from electron accumulation, reasonable use of a luminescent screen, and enhancement of light intensity.
