摘要 |
This invention relates to a method of manufacturing an field emission electrode, including a field emission electrode substrate ( 1 ) and a plurality of emitter particles ( 2 ) arranged on said field emission electrode substrate ( 1 ), comprising the steps of:-dispersing said emitter particles ( 2 ) as aerosolized emitter particles ( 2 ) in a carrier gas stream;-electrically charging said emitter particles ( 2 ); and-directing said charged emitter particles ( 2 ) in the carrier gas stream via at least one outlet towards the field emission electrode substrate ( 1 ) while maintaining an electric field between the substrate ( 1 ) and a deposition electrode ( 10 ) near the outlet, whereafter said emitter particles ( 2 ) are deposited on and adhered to said field emission electrode substrate ( 1 ).
