Abstract: PURPOSE:To make tip parts in a plane pattern of an emitter from which electrons are emitted sharp by depositing W, SiN, and Al successively on an insulating substrate. CONSTITUTION:A tungsten layer 2 (W layer 2), a silicon nitride layer 3 (SiN layer 3), and an aluminum layer 4 (Al layer 4) are successively formed on an insulating substrate 1 by evaporation. A photoresist 5 is applied to the surface of the Al layer 4, exposed to light, developed, and patterned into a plane pattern of an electron emitting device, Next, the Al layer 4 as an upper layer is so patterned by wet etching as to be hollowed out. Further, the W layer 2 as a lower layer is dry-etched and here the upper Al layer 4 works as a mask having sufficient resistance to the dry-etching. For this, the periphery part of the lower W layer 2 does not become round and is etched corresponding to the Al layer 4 pattern, so that the comb-like pattern in a plane of an emitter becomes sharp.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide the stabilized emission current by coating a surface of a conical emitter formed with a sharp tapered projecting end and provided so as to be projected from a surface of a basal member with a conductive film formed by sintering a resist film of the organic material. SOLUTION: After forming an emitter 13 on a basal member 11, a conductive film 21 for coating a surface of the emitter 13 is formed, and continuously, an insulating layer 12 as an inter-electrode insulating layer and an electrode layer as a gate electrode 14 are laminated, and the laminated electrode layer and the insulating layer 12 are formed with openings for exposing a sharp end of the emitter 13 in order by the lithography. The surface of the emitter 13 is chemically changed to inert by coating it with the conductive film 21 using the chemically stabilized material, and the residual gas molecule in the vacuum becomes hard to be adsorbed so as to prevent the lowering of the emission current at a low degree of vacuum. As a material for the conductive film 21, a material mainly composed of carbon is used in principle, and a polyimide group material can be also used.
