Abstract: The present invention is intended to provide an electron-beam-pumped light source capable of irradiating one surface of a semiconductor light-emitting device uniformly with an electron beam, and capable of obtaining a high light output without increasing an accelerating voltage of the electron beam and, in addition, capable of efficiently cooling the semiconductor light-emitting device. An electron-beam-pumped light source of the present invention includes: an electron beam source and a semiconductor light-emitting device excited by an electron beam emitted from the electron beam source, and characterized in that the electron beam source includes a planar electron beam emitting portion and arranged in the periphery of the semiconductor light-emitting device, and light exits from a surface through which the electron beam from the electron beam source of the semiconductor light-emitting device enters.

Abstract: Disclosed is an electrode for an electron source, a method for producing the same, and an electronic tube using the same which provide a decreased thickness of an electron emitting source, and an improved current distribution percentage. The electronic tube comprises a substrate, an electron emitting source area formed on the substrate, and a shield area around the electron emitting area. The shield area is formed of a material that does not produce an electron emitting source, when the electron emitting source is produced by a dry method. As a result, if a space between an electron drawing electrode and the electrode for the electron source is narrow, the percentage of anode current increases in the total current, thereby improving the current distribution percentage.
