Abstract：A brief introduction of some major vacuum microelectronic devices is presented including field emitter arrays(FEA), feild emission displays(FED) and the vacuum microelectronic devices in microwave and millimeter-wave bands. The paper mainly discusses the requirements for FEA by the mentioned devices, possible solutions to the requirements, and further research topics. As an example, the paper also discusses research topics and problems about vacuum microelectronic microwave tubes.
