CURRENT STABILIZING METHOD OF FIELD EMISSION ELEMENT, AND MANUFACTURING METHOD OF FIELD EMISSION ELEMENT

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for stabilizing the field emission element.

SOLUTION: This is a current stabilizing method of a field emission element in which a plasma treatment is applied to carbon nanotubes 22 of the field emission element. Thereby, the carbon nanotubes 22 having a uniform surface can be obtained and a stable electron emission density can be obtained at these carbon nanotubes 22, thereby the lifetime of the field emission element itself can be extended.
