Patent ID: 7391150

Claim:
A method of manufacturing an electron-emitting device including an electron-emitting electrode and a control electrode arranged to be spaced apart from each other on a surface of an insulating substrate, the method comprising the steps of: preparing an insulating substrate having an electron-emitting electrode and a control electrode on the surface thereof; and covering a surface of the insulating substrate, which is located between the electron-emitting electrode and the control electrode, with a resistive film, such that the electron-emitting electrode and the control electrode are connected through the resistive film, wherein the electron-emitting electrode is formed by disposing an electroconductive layer on the surface of the insulating substrate, and by disposing on the electroconductive layer an insulating layer on a surface of which a dipole layer is arranged, and the resistive film is arranged to cover at least an end portion of the surface of the electron-emitting electrode opposed to the control electrode.
