Abstract:
An electron source, comprising:a substrate; an antistatic film formed on said substrate; a plurality of electron emission elements disposed on said antistatic film, and wiring lines containing a metal for connecting said plurality of electron emission elements, said wiring lines including a plurality of first wiring lines intersecting with a plurality of second wiring lines, with an insulation layer disposed between said first and second lines, wherein each said electron emission element comprises a conductive film including an electron emission part disposed on said antistatic film, with said conductive film electrically connected to said wiring lines via a conductive member provided between said wiring lines and said antistatic film and containing materials with a function of blocking metal ions contained in said wiring lines from being transferred to the conductive film, said conductive member extending beneath and along said first wiring lines and between said first wiring lines and said antistatic film.
