摘要

The present invention provides a method of producing a spacer provided between a first substrate and a second substrate on which an electron emitting device is arranged, the method including the step of forming a film on at least a portion of at least one surface of the spacer. The film forming step includes the step of preparing a bundle of a plurality of spacer base members, and the step of coating a film material on the bundle, and wherein the bundle on which the film material is coated has a mask layer for covering at least a film non-formation portion near the film formation portion of each of the plurality of spacer base members of the bundle.
