Abstract:
An electron emitting device includes a first electrode located on a substrate (1), an insulating layer located on the first electrode (2), and a second electrode (3) located on the insulating layer. Various examples are described. In one example, the second electrode has a first surface and a second surface, which are substantially vertical to a direction that the first electrode and the insulating layer are laminated. The first surface of the second electrode is in contact with the insulating layer. A higher potential than that applied to the second electrode is applied to the first electrode to emit an electron from the second surface.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an electrodeposition controlling method for monitoring the position at the objective place and stopping electrodeposition. SOLUTION: The electrode 1 to be electrodeposited, a counter electrode 2 and a reference electrode 3 are connected to a potentiostat 4, and a monitor electrode 5 is connected to a power source 7 via an ammeter or a voltmeter 6.
