PURPOSE: To provide a flat panel type display device, the manufacturing of which is facilitated.

CONSTITUTION: A flat panel type display device comprises at least two pairs of electrode groups, on each of which a plurality of electrodes are provided in the direction that each electrode crosses the other perpendicularly, and a flat panel emission device having a screen that forms a picture element at the intersection of each electrode provided between electrode groups. The area of the picture element in the peripheral region is larger than that of the picture element in the central region of the screen.
