A method of manufacturing a cathode for magnetron comprises a cathode sleeve formed as a hollow cylinder, a heater inside the sleeve, two end shields formed around the sleeve at a prescribed interval and an electron emitting material applied around the sleeve between both end-shields, wherein a plurality of isolated projections are almost regularly and intergraly formed around the sleeve between the end-shields, and the above electron emitting material is applied onto the cathode sleeve to fill gaps among the plural projections. According to the method of manufacturing a cathode of the present invention, the efficiency of electron emission and electric conductivity are not lowered, whereby the stable operation can be realized for a long term.
